Why an air scoop when you already have an "air scoop" integrated into the hood/grille area of the car? It serves no significant purpose, aside from looking pretty cool...I surmise?

Well it's just a cheap mod that you can do to "help" performance by ramming more air into the intake theoretically. They go behind the kidney grills. It's been around the e90s for a long time.

For example:
