Yes, K&N recommends 50,000 miles on conical filters, and 100,000 miles on panel filters for cleaning.
I'll be honest, most enthusiasts shoot for ~30,000 miles, but you can always clock the filters every 6 months, airflow always seems to follow a pattern, and certain areas will see more flow. So by moving them a bit, you'll get the same filtration, without having to clean/recharge them.
But the increased performance from the Gen 3's will make up for any extra effort, which once you've removed the bumper will prove to be minimal, as others have stated. Highly recommend going for the G3's.. especially with this month's special..
