RC rear bumper cover vents - functional or decorative?6
The RC has these vents or what appear to be vents (towards the outer ends of the rear bumper cover) complete with strakes or ribs a la testarossa. Are they functional or just eye candy?

The vents on the side of the Testarossa were technically functional, moving air into the radiators, but almost nobody knew or cared, as they created a spectacular styling statement. Same thing here, but a bit less spectacular. At this point, I don't know if they serve any purpose; they look great, which I think is their purpose. It worked for me, as I ordered one recently and will sell my SC430.

Everything I was hoping for... some rear cosmetic vents are not registering on my opinion meter.
