Default DIY Air Diversion Panel

I was bored today and I got some plexiglass at work so I decided to create my air diversion panel. It's not perfect, but overall I think it's a nice touch. My main reason for wanting this is probably to be able to place tools/parts there haha. there Painted the underside black. Here are some pics:

Well the plexiglass was free because I got it from work, we just had that laying around, the 2 clips were $0.37 each at ace, and a can of spray paint was around 5 bucks.

And the fog lights are coming, I just need to get a lower grille first so I can remove my oem fogs, I'm trying not to drive around half finished at any point because we all know that ends in many unfinished projects and always a half riced car

Technically it is supposed to direct the air at the radiator, keeping it cooler, not sure how much of an effect it actually has, I just did it for the looks and to be able to keep tools on top when working in the engine bay
