Thank you for your input Scribe. I do like the "function over form" approach as you accurately analyzed. I rather have a light and functional lip and canards than either a bulky snow plow looking lip or heavy aftermarket bumper of lower OEM quality just for aesthetic purposes. I do like the ducts primarily because they are 100% functional
Ducts coupled with K&N filters would provide excellent gains comparable to any aftermarket intake. There is no better intake system than the 370's OEM system at preventing heat soak thus increasing its efficiency.
The highest HP gains done with some of these aftermarket intake systems were achieved by removing the front bumper and with an open hood. The main restrictive element being the front bumper. All these manufactures play the numbers game of course, so they can sell their products, but with a simple bumper modification, you can achieve similar numbers as well.
