I don't think too many people do the side intake grill, as any restriction on airflow = loss of power. Might only be 10 or 20 hp, who knows, but no way I would live with that. I spent $500 on my Jeep 5.7l Mopar intake to cure the sewing machine engine sound and add 7 (SEVEN!! NOT SIX, SEVEN!) hp at the wheels. That's just my 2 cents.
A motor heats up to running temperature regardless of the grills. Grills will only change the performance if the engine can't stay at running temperature. That would likely never happen during normal street driving.

I'll probably order the "BILLFARO 2Pcs Upgraded Front Radiator Guards" from amazon.ca for $100. I'm feeling the need to get something C8 related to pass the time along. Already have a car cover, USB stick and vanity plates ready to go.
Did you purchase the Billfaro grill gairds? And if so are you happy with them? I am thinking about buying them for mine.

I got the billfaro grill guards from Amazon. Haven't installed them yet, but they look well built.
Mine seem to work alright stopping grass hoppers

be sure to get the ones that fit your C8.
I read the description for some products that will not Z51 models.
I did not know there was a different in the front grill or side intakes.
