They look like easy access coil holder downers. maybe for that authentic JDM racecar look? Or better airflow across the coilpacks?

Exactly. The K engine has coil-on-plug ignition. This is just a low resistance ground strap. Pretty sweet if you ask me

The only problem I see with it is that the coils dont ground externally, they ground through the wiring harness and through the plug. It may have some benefit for radio interference but other than that I see none other than the bling factor.
