Chevrolet Aveo T250 2005-2011 Winter grille

Winter cover for the radiator grille for Chevrolet Aveo T250 2005–2011 — a model-specific plastic panel that is installed externally over the factory upper grille, into its chrome frame near the emblem. In winter it partially blocks the flow of cold air to the radiator, so the engine reaches operating temperature faster in city driving, on short trips, and at idle. The cover follows the shape of the grille; in the middle there is an embossed area for the Chevrolet emblem, as shown in the photo in the listing. It does not cover the lower opening in the bumper. Manufacturer — Digital Designs, color — black. In conversation it is also called a “winter grille”, “winter plug”, or “little winter grille”.

Parameter “Choose shade”: matte cover

The parameter in the product listing indicates the type of surface finish of the cover. The matte cover is made of ABS plastic with a slightly rough texture: small scratches from a brush, snow, and sand are almost unnoticeable on it, so for everyday winter use this is a practical option. The part number and specifications are visible after selecting the variant on the product page.

T250 or T200, sedan or hatchback

The cover is designed for Aveo T250 2005–2011. It is easy to confuse it with the earlier T200 because the production years overlap, so for cars from 2005–2008 the year in the registration documents doesn’t decide anything — ориентируйтеся на передок. On the T250, the headlights are one-piece and rise from the V-shaped grille toward the fenders, while on the T200 the headlights are separate from the turn-signal strip beneath them. There are no separate winter covers for Aveo T200 and T300 in the catalog.

The photo in the listing shows a sedan. The photo in the listing shows a sedan, so hatchback owners should first compare the shape of their grille with the photo of the cover or send a photo of the front end to the manager. The same should be done if the front end of the car was ever replaced.

Installation

There is no need to remove the factory grille or drill anything. The комплект includes the cover and fasteners; installation type — hooks. Installation procedure:

• clean the grille from dirt, snow, and ice and test-fit the cover along the contour;
• insert the fastening elements into the special holes of the cover;
• start the brackets on the screws;
• hook the brackets onto the factory radiator grille and tighten the screws.

When to install and when to remove

The cover is installed when stable cold weather sets in and removed in spring as it warms up. During winter, monitor the engine temperature. If your vehicle’s owner’s manual has restrictions on covering the radiator grille, follow them. The cover helps a properly working engine warm up faster, but it does not replace a functioning thermostat: if the engine takes too long to warm up even without it, the cause should be looked for separately.
