The front lower nose aluminum (in front of the radiator) Factory Five cuts 3 large louvers in the aluminum. Should they bend up toward the radiator or bend down toward the ground? The engineer in me can make an argument for either, my gut says bend them up or leave them alone. Any suggestions or wind tunnel data out there? Does it help get more air into the radiator?

Bend them UP, to direct more air through the radiator. Chad did this and noticed an immediate difference.

Don't bend them until you know if you need to. I added Craig's bigger louvers and I expect that air flow isn't going to be an issue. I also boxed in the frame/suspension box so that the air doesn't just fill that area under the hood vs flowing out the louvers.
