i had this same mentality when i was mesh shopping. wasn't sure if 60 was going to cut it, so i just went with the 77. But the amount of airflow that is added by just opening it up, i still think you'd come out on top with the 60. and it's cheap anyway... you might not even notice a drop in cooling at all and if you do wanna change it afterwards, get the 77

A light coat of black paint is better than 60% air flow. I'd just paint The intercooler.

I question if it's a good thing to make the engine run too cool, in a four season state.....

I really like the cardboard idea. With some great gorilla tape.

i was thinking of putting a coat of wax over it.. Hopefully it will help.. It doesnt look too bad i can wipe it off with my finger..
Just giving you a heads up.. Maybe you want to take precausions before it starts to happen to yours..
