For the turbo what concerns me is that the lower billet grill has very narrow spacing and will really impede air flow and not allow the intercooler to do it's job. If the intercooler isn't cooling the air then you are losing power. But I guess if you are into form over function and don't mind losing performance then by all means go for "the look".
