When it comes to recirculation of cooling air I got no such problem since I 
have the splitter,
in the form of an underside running all the way to the engine of the car. 
So, what remains is
where to let the cooling air OUT from after the radiator. For one season I 
let the air out in
front of the front wheel. I also used the original hood grill openings. But 
the best is the big
hood openings as like Carapi-Holgerssons car, which I designed back in the 
80:s. I now use
a big rectangular openings that still require front trunk modification, and 
it is close to the C&H
version.
There are two things about it, 1, it adds ground force under the car. 2, it 
let more air going over
the car compared to the "in front of the front wheel" outlet.
