Looking for a tasteful design but form < function. I'm partial to the Varis myself, however there's numerous threads on these forums speaking to more benefits of the vents being closer to the front of the hood. Both AriuSen and Michael9218 have several posts on their takes on that. Benefits for cooling and aero.

Additionally, my preference would be exposed carbon on the underside and both sides of vents, however I'd be painting the outside body colour so finish doesn't matter there - cost savings would be more appreciated. Similar to how a few manufacturers have varying options based on customer preference: fibreglass, 1-sided carbon, 2-sided carbon, etc.
Definitely function over form for this piece and we will consider doing in different finishes/material.

Now about the hood? Hmmmm thinking
Thank you for your support and patience. It looks excellent and you didn't waste a second installing it.

Perhaps some thought could be put into location of some vents for functionality.
I can't seem to located them. Can you recall what keyword to search?
