I have a plan to install the AEM CAI with extra large filter pods so that it sits right in those vents.

As far as temp reductions, I doubt you'd see any significant changes unless you give that hot air a place to escape. The hood is also super sexy, doesn't detract from the vehicles lines, and is certainly functional; hood + bumper make a superb combo.
Here’s a direct shot of the filter locations with this front end.
After installing this intake I’d like to point out that the meshing will need to be slightly convex formed to prevent rubbing on the filter caps.
Edit: The filters that come with this kit are quite large, glockwork appears to have found an alternate choice (page 2) which leaves more room.
I also sprung for the filter covers due to moisture and dust.
Trimmed the splash guards directly under the fender shrouds as well, I wanted access to the filters so I could cover them with bags during a wash without having to remove the bumper.
