In stock form, bugs would barely get stuck to the condenser's fins and would usually fall off from barely touching it or rinsing it off with a garden hose. However, since I performed these modifications, bugs now seem to get forced between the fins much deeper and needs to be picked out rather than just brushed or rinsed off. Not scientific, but it does indicate that my modifications seem to have increased airflow through the AC condenser and the radiator.

Would a bug screen around the radiator and AC condenser be out of question?
