Transmission Cooler Guard?
Would anyone have any info re a manufacturer that produces guards for our many air/oil coolers? More specifically a guard for the transmission cooler? Mine's been taking a bit of a beating lately. I've managed to fix some of the cooling fins, but afraid to touch the rest for obvious reasons

I know IND has something for the M2, but maybe it's too soon for the F97. EDIT: The other 'rads' are either 100% ok, or 95% ok. Even the oil cooler is 100% (the one that lies flat, underneath)

Could consider what a bunch of Porsche owners and guys that to do heavy track work do and buy some fine metal mesh and install it yourself behind the larger black mesh that came with the car.

EDIT: if I install some fine mesh, it'll actually go in front of that existing black guard you referred to - that guard is in front of the larger cooler/rad. I need it to go in front of the smaller tranny cooler you see in the pic...
