This lower grille is made by Kspeed to match the OEM mounting points for Optima model years 2011, 2012 and 2013 (part reference KI1036113, 865612T000).

How does this grille help my Optima’s cooling and engine protection?

Its structure screens out larger debris—like stones, paper and road trash—reducing the chance of radiator damage or airflow blockage that could hamper cooling efficiency.

• Designed to align with factory openings for optimized airflow
• ABS material resists rust and weather deterioration
• Open pattern deflects common road debris from the radiator

What is this grille made of and how durable is it?
