Lol but you just proved my point. It is a show piece. You've already blocked off the back two going from a show piece to a more function piece. And it doesn't matter where the vents are in stopped traffic. Any vent on the hood will keep temps from climbing to fast since there's no movement of air when stopped, heat WILL pour out as hot air rises. The important thing is when moving does it work? With the back two blocked off I say yes.
