The two large side vents are actually going to have a couple of coolers behind them so they will be functional. I would be surprised if the fascia increased the drag at all. Scoops don't really increase drag. The big front lip would do more in the ways of increasing downforce/drag than the side scoops would.

With that being said...You would have to be going at speeds in excess of 120 and up to see any type of difference in your aero drag. The front lip will add downforce at speeds below that which will help in cornering and what not, similar to a canard. But any increase in drag from those scoops would be pretty small.
