Its actualy for lift reduction. What normaly happens on a street car is pressure builds up in the front wheel wells and this then creates lift. Think of air as lots of foam blocks. If you keep shoving them in there faster than they leave they start to jack the front of the car up as the tire can not move down.
Its why if they allow it, all race cars run the top of the fenders vented.
The old "car of tomorrow" shows the wider front clearly, while I can't really see it in the latest photos.
Just a thought as its cheap to tweak the fender and bumpercover, likely no real custom work past careful pulling and maybe a couple new innerbraces to the chassis to hold the new profile.
