Middle grille/bumper opening

[SoCalStig]

Good afternoon/evening all. I have noticed that on some of the Sports the opening between the grille and the lower air intake (just above where the license plate would go) have a full width opening, while others have a rectangular area blocking off the area below the O and N in Bronco. Can anyone explain the difference? Is it for Copilot 360 or something like that? I actually prefer the full width opening, as I think that would be a great place to put a single row LED light bar.
Thank you.

Our OB looks some kind of damper system for closing off the Air flow in through the Radiator , I haven't investigated it throughly yet to see how if at all ,its actuated . Is this the area you are referring to , there are definitely damper vanes there , but they could be just for flow direction , like I said , I have not looked into it as of yet .

The attached photo has the two different openings that I am referring to.

I believe that is the plate that covers the radar for the adaptive cruise control.
