The two small ones on the sides. Maybe have a piece on the back that extends into the pocket and a bole slides thru? I dunno, i think theyll be cheap (for CF) and help aerodynamically.

I wouldn't really do that, and besides, let the front-end breathe.
but if you want to, get two pieces of carbon F. and bolt them there.

You might be able to fabricate some yourself using some flexible RacePlates CF panels.

best thing to do imo would be to take them out(the stock ones) send em to a fabricator and wallah...cf ducts...i wouldnt recommend blocking them completely off though it would help aerodynamically but prob not enough to justify it and u prob wont be driving that fast anyway to make much of a diff
