It's actually an upside down wing to generate downforce much like the wing on the back of the car. It's completely aerodynamic. That's why those you see on street cars are more for appearance and not actually useful in any way.

For this piece to add lift, the rear of the component is slightly pulled up into the car which increases the angle of attack and therefore increases life (pointed downwards that is).

Great post, awesome pics and videos. Thanks for posting!! I'd give them my car for 600 hours to do the same with it.

The under hood ducting is to vent the air flow from the radiator. By exhausting the air through the hood it is much more aerodynamic and also creates a small amount of downforce. Most series rule forbid front wings on production based vehicles but "ducting" is allowed.
