[...]Because at real world speed the hood latch isn't creating drag, and won't affect mpg or speed. [...]
thank you. I know that every lightbar and aftermarket bumper is worse for airflow than the hood latches, i just thought why fill the gap between bumper and fenders and lean the windscreen back, which also doesn't bring that much, when you still leave the hood latches protruding.
Some manufacturers like BMW and Mercedes even close lamellae in front of the radiator to restrict airflow through it when not much cooling power ist needed, just to get better aerodynamics. Compared to that that just sticks out.
