I was told by a Team Mustang individual at the Ford Racing Innovation Drive in Detroit that the insert is intended to restrict air flow. It has solid portions just like the grill. I got the impression that unnecessary air flow through the front of the car can increase drag and effect fuel economy.

That's why in NASCAR they duct tape the front of the car untill they get just enough airflow for the motor to run cool enough.
