I took this same idea, thanks to hunter44102. I only went a step further. Enjoy.

Hey there, this looks great! Did you consider using a finer mesh for the small road debris?
This install is still a work in progress, but I used a finer mesh for mine ;)

I'm considering in using a metal gutter guard for a cleaner installation.

This is definitely a manufacturing issue.
I've contact the following lawsuit firms:

2.) https://bergermontague.com/cases/honda-civic-ac-lawsuit/

Attached are before and after pics.

No you don't have to remove anything the way I did it. Its TWO separate long strips that go in the front of those vertical plastic pieces. I secured the two strips using tie wraps to those vertical bars.

By putting them in the front, there is less chance that it can somehow end up touching the intercooler.

I have 2280 miles so far with no issues
Do you have a link to the material you used ?

That big sensor is a bullseye waiting for a rock to take it out!
This is by design so honda can rake in the money for their service departments. The corporate trend for profits right now is in service. Whether your a tech company or a car manufacturer, service makes the big bucks these days.
