Put a IC behind it and you'll be good to go!

Don't put a grille behind it: it just makes it look very tacky and cheap. This is not some Civic with a black widow kit. As the poster above me said leave it open until you can fill it with an intercooler or an ARC oil cooler. Maybe not anything at all, it still looks great.

I agree with the others. You'll get more respect with your old radiator and wiper fluid reservoir showing than you would with a grill. On the other hand, it is your vehicle and you should do what you like with it.

A mesh insert wouldn't be too bad. I actually started putting one on when I do track days to protect my ARC oil cooler. I did a couple without one and it got dinged up pretty good. Learned my lesson the hard way. If you can get a mesh that isn't too noticeable, go for it.

^i like that idea but I don't have a front license plate lol. I'll definitely put some mesh on the two side vents and the other I'm still debating. How should I attach it to the bumper though? Any ideas?

just put black mesh in the center and sides. Will cover up the radiator and make everything look clean/black.

You can paint the reservoir black so that it does not show. And as long as you keep the mesh black, it shouldn't look bad. I personally kept it open.
