That's what I mean. When you aren't at speed, the radiator itself will radiate (again har har) infra-red into the plastic of the bumper, the bumper support, the filters and intake tubes themselves etc and cause the air up front to be just as hot (within reason) as what is behind the support, that heats your intakes up regardless of what insulation you have behind the support.
It's a vicious cycle.
