Default Discussion topic: What to replace the 2019 fake rear vents with?

For 2019 Audi added two small fake vents to the rear of the TT.
Clearly, those useless bits of black plastic want to have something useful (or silly) mounted in their place.

So I ask you all:
What should be installed there?

My family and I have some ideas of our own on the topic, but we will wait to share those until we have a few responses from the forum...

Normally I'd say cut them out and make them into real vents . . . but our rear wheels do not do much braking and don't really need additional cooling.

If you are a props person in the film industry, stick your police lights in there for a good futuristic look up your pursuit cars. Ignore the 2 doors.

My son suggests:
  • Flechette launcher
  • Smoke screen dispenser
Yes, he's been watching James Bond movies...

Hello
Has anyone managed to dismantle these false exits?
Is there on the market more sexy or functional replacement parts?

I've hear that the answer to this is no - the mounts are different.

I'm actually leaning towards auxiliary reversing lights. The stock ones are weak.

I hated them at first but have grown used to them and think they break up the bulk of the rear corners. However, I HATE fake vents period.....If they aren't real, don't have them.
