Bumper duct question

I took off my oem bumper duct things to go with a cleaner look. My question is will it affect the oil cooler or anything? just want to make sure.

The air will not all go directly where it's supposed to be 'funneled' to which is the ail cooler. May look "cleaner", but it's there for a VERY important reason...

Yes it will impair the operation of the oil cooler but if your not pushing the car very hard , ie just daily driving and full throttle just a couple gears at a time, the oil cooler and ducting is not necessay.
