Air flow wise I dont think it wont make that much of a difference. If you are looking for a different look, I would just paint the bar flat black. Use a chip resistant rocker paint. That way you dont have a gaping hole there (which is ugly unless completey filled by a intercooler). The bar is nice and rigid too so you have a mounting location if need be.
