Default bonnet louvers in a mk3 zt

Whats everyones opinion on bonnet louvers? (pressed in vents). Im thinking about having some pressed into my bonnet on my rs 1600i zt that im building, was thinking about having them only on one side over the turbo to let a bit of heat out. Who has them? Any pictures?
