This is what I did with my setup plus cutting out all the plastic in the bumper. Helped a ton with coolant temps but having a proper front splitter helping to direct even more air through the bumper, made even more of a difference. Never had oil temps problem since added auxiliary fan to the oil cooler. And it’s only 25row but it’s in the fender well with Louvered liner.

Yup no intake pipes in there definitely makes it easier but routing brake cooling hose was a tough.

I have 12inch spal fan with thermostatic temp switch. It turns on automatically at 185F
