Trying to modify my grill block to be more aerodynamic.

So I had a full lower block but even on colder days I heard my radiator fans going a lot. So I am trying to design something that will get more air to my radiator but also be very aero dynamic at the same time. I have two designs and I currently am using type one of my two designs and it seems to be doing well with the cooling, I hardly ever hear my fans going, but I am afraid that is is causing unneeded drag.

I feel like type two would work more efficiently but I wanted to get the peoples perspective on the issue first. Thanks guys!

P.S. I know my car is super dirty and the paint is kinda ****ty, but I love this little fuel sipper regardless
