When I installed the 25 row Z1 oil cooler with thermostatic plate, my temps usually hovered around 180 most of the time.

I then installed a black power coated diamond grill to protect the coolers from larger road debris. After installing the grill, I found my temp was sitting around either 185,190 or 200. The grill I installed has a 75% air flow rate. The loss in air flow made my temps increase by 5-15 degrees. I like the piece of mind with having a little protection for the coolers and the little higher oil temp.

Maybe you might want to consider doing the same.
