hood gill slits

what happened to the gill slits on the hood from the red concept. i don't know what the purpose for them was but they made it look a little meaner. maybe make that hood available thru mazdaspeed? or maybe some of the after market guys will have something like it?

They were to keep the engine bay cooler by helping circulation. Maybe they will come back. Engine cooling is very important!

i might need them if i've got to stick my front plate right in the middle of the grill, obstructing the airflow.
