Ok the radiator is in the front, but I am relocating it to the sides (twin sport bike radiators) so I can completley close the front

Which then leads me to the question, I can also leave the opening and duct all that air towards vents that would be on the belly pan. So the air would have a straighter path. But I dont know whats best;
- Block it off and let air do its thing (flow over or under it)
- Direct it towards the bottom, which might possibly disrupt the laminar airflow going under or it might be better since the car would "Artificially" have less frontal area...

?


Btw the car has a FULL under belly pan.
