Gimme some suggestions on a front bumper

My car is all stock...(well the exterior is)
I have a nice big FMIC and in daily driving the car runs a little hotter than usual, nothing dangerous but that's just wit regular driving. I plan on auto crossing with the car and I need to change out the front bumper because currently the stock one is only allowing maybe 1/3 of the intercooler to get airflow. The rest is basically doing nothing. I just need some suggestions on what would be a good front bumper that will open up the front quite a bit so the FMIC can get as much airflow in there as possible. I've looked at a lot but nothing I have seen yet opens it up as much as I would want it to, someone throw me some suggestions...

Mazdaspeed GTC. The only aftermarket bumper I would go with, especially on a black car. Or 99 spec.

I would suggest a bumper which has a opening above the FMIC to allow you to duct fresh air to the radiator. Feed has a bumper with one and there are a few others.

I like my C-West N1 Type II front bumper cover. It doesn't have the second opening to duct air to the rad, but the main opening is big enough to fit most FMICs.

Ignore the paint, I have bigger fish to fry at the moment...
