Hey, Andy,

<snip> I'm thinking about getting some grille inserts to help the engine
get up to temperature quicker<snip>

Save yourself the $40 & just Duck Tape some cardboard or thin plexiglas in
there. It'll do the same thing...
I'd be wary of temps over 32F, but if ya keep an eye on your temp gage,
it'll tell ya when it's time to remove whatever ya put in there...In the
heart of winter, I know a coupla guys who change to shorter belts &
eliminate the fan, but I don't see that as being a good thing ...
Course ya could just start it & let it run 5 - 10 minutes before ya leave...
