I'd be interested to hear how you get on with this, as I considered it myself too from an aesthetic perspective and agree, the v brace exposed is a good look.

However, reading other posts on this subject, it seems there may be detrimental effects in removing the active shutters, as they're part of the EfficientDynamics system.

I believe when the shutter is closed it aids in a quicker engine operating temperature. The shutters, when closed, also reduce drag and thus help fuel consumption. When they're open, it suggests rapid cooling is required by feeding in ambient air.

Not sure on the long term effects of removing them (if any).
