the ones that snap into the grill look nice but really don't stop the cold from getting to the engine. Just looks.

I got mine from Alaska Tent and Tarp here in Fairbanks. It covers the grill and then goes between the grill and the bumper and goes down to cover all the way down to below the radiator. The cool thing is they also made me a bug screen that covvers everything the vinyl cold front covers for use in the summer. It uses snaps so you will have to drill some holes.

MNMWHIT is correct. If you want to see one of the snap-on style sippered cold fronts made by Alaska Tent and Tarp check out the photos in my gallery.
BTW MNM, is yours the regular style or did you get the quilted?? Next time I'm in Anchorage, I will pick up the screen front.
I must say I love the quicker warm ups in the winter. These things really make a difference. What's even better is the ability to zip them up totally or even lift up the bottom if you should start to overheat. But I've never once even begun to overheat with it installed.
