Yeah I didn't believe it would be correlated at all ordinarily. With the particular particular bumper cover I received, the sytrofoam is actually pressing against the intake duct in my grille... I figured maybe the seal its making is choking flow enough to raise engine temperatures significantly.
I've owned the car since 58,000 miles and I'm at 101,000. Seems like an odd time for oil consumption to spike so drastically but I am no mechanic.
Guess not though! Thanks.
