john deere sold replacement foams for I-am-not-kidding $643. i ordered some adhesive foam for $18 on amazon. works great!

you can see the grass pulled against the mesh by the vacuum of the radiator fan, previously it was sneaking around the edges of the foam directly to the radiator.

I have created a Good Habit.

I flip the Hood and use a blower on the deck and the engine compartment after I finish mowing.
