Looks good so far. Definitely cut a vent in your front bumper for the air intake, it will make a difference when you're moving for intake temps

Thanks! Although I would be reluctant to cut any holes in my bumper, there is a section of plastic about 3 inches wide on the right side of the radiator. After reading your suggestion, I am thinking about modifying this section to funnel air toward the filter, which is perfectly in line with it. I figured if I cut this off, I could use brackets to angle it to direct air from the upper bumper opening onto the filter. The area below the filter is wide open and quite airy toward the bottom of the engine bay, so I think the intake air shouldn't be too hot. That said, it is partially behind the rad. I have a fair bit of adjustment with the filter as it is, so I could actually point in down and closer to the bottom of the engine bay, but not too far as to pic up road debris or water from the wheels.
