You could easily make some ducts or be creative and insert something there
I need to check his out. I liked how Austinjames put a mesh screen over over the entire ports.

At first, I wanted to cut out the fog brackets from inside the port and cover it with a metal mesh. Then wire RBG LEDs to my grill lighting so it glows in the ports when the grill lightning is on. But I like the way the projector fogs look.

Oh, pyroboys is similar to austinjames bumper. He cut the port and ran LEDs down the side of the port opening. Looks really good to me

Just went through his build thread! The Tron car looks great! I like how clean it looks getting rid of the round lights in a rectangular hole. I might do something similar down the line, but I'll have to think about it. There's no turning back from cutting the ports out!

Yea, once you cut them that's it. I personally can't decide what to do either when I get mine

It'll help. But the only way to completely get rid of your rasp is with the resonated x pipe.
