Vehicular front bumper and fascia assemblies are provided. According to one implementation, a fascia is configured to cover a front bumper of a vehicle. The fascia includes fluid conduits configured to provide fluid flows to the front wheels and redirection portals that intersect the fluid conduits. The redirection portals provide fluid flows away from and/or around the front wheels. The fascia also includes adjustable panels associated with the fluid conduits. When the vehicle is travelling at a velocity below a predetermined lower level, the adjustable panels are configured to open the fluid conduits so as to provide the fluid flows toward the front wheels. When the vehicle is travelling at a velocity above a predetermined upper level, the adjustable panels are configured to close the fluid conduits and redirect the fluid flows through the redirection portals away from and/or around the front wheels.
