A radiator grille cover for motor vehicles comprises a base panel composed of a flexible material and has suitable fasteners on the base panel for releasable connection to the radiator grille of a motor vehicle. The base panel has a centrally located air-receiving opening with one or more additional panels superimposed thereon which are sized to at least partially cover the opening in the base panel. The additional panels are in the form of flexible flaps with a center opening of a different size, the opening being symmetrical with respect to air passage through the radiator grille and having fasteners for releasably fastening the additional panels to the base panel. One or more of the flaps may be released from a position overlying the center opening of the base panel and inserted into a storage pocket on the front thereof so as not to require complete removal from the grille.
A radiator grille cover for controlling the effective opening size of a radiator grille on a motor vehicle comprising in combination:
A radiator grille cover for covering the effective air opening size in a radiator grille of a motor vehicle, said cover comprising a flexible base panel including fastening means for connection to the exterior surface of said grille in symmetrical relation to the center opening of said grille, said flexible base panel provided with an opening therein which is symmetrical with respect to the center of said grille, at least one flap section superimposed on said base panel and sized to cover the opening in said base panel, said flap section adjacent to said base panel provided with an opening therein smaller than and substantially aligned with the opening in said base panel when in their superimposed positions, and means releasably connecting one end of each said flap section to the next adjacent underlying panel.
