VY CV8 grill, why half blind holes?

[KMud]

I guess I hadn't noticed before, the VY CV8 grill is half through-holes and half blind holes. Any reason? I guess there isn't much point in opening them all up if the MAP sensor says there's no restriction wide open, but the VZ CV8 grill appears to be all through-holes (at least I think so from scrutinising photos)

Think the VZ grill is a slightly different shape to the VY grill.

Good to know

I may gut mine to aid the OTRCAI (or at least view of the natty green filter ), but I think I need to retain the middle bar else it may end up looking 'noseless' (i.e., Irmscher-esque...).

Also didn't realise the grill is integral to the bumper! Anyone had one off?
