Default Over the radiator intake questions

So I really love the look of these intakes, but I'm noticing that everyone is deleting their A/C when they make them. Can they be done while retaining the A/C?
Pics for reference:

Really? I didn't think either of the cars pictured are FI. I thought it was mainly for cosmetic reasons which is what I want also.

I'm sure you could retain ac and use a smaller tube or angle the radiator back more with the cover you make.

One car(pictured) is N/A and the other car pictured is Nitrous. I've got this setup on my N/A car, no A/C. But I dont see why you couldn't run A/C and still have this ram-air.
