It sounds like a cool idea based off older ideas. But this won't help with performance of the truck at all. This was a design for aesthetics and it does in fact look good. Does it matter if they are functional? Not at all.

It could help vent heat in offroad/slow/stopped situations. that could be considered "performance"

If this was a thing then performance shops all over the place would be pushing the idea. Even when im at the track racing. Nobody has functional vents. This was a theory decades ago but doesn't hold much weight unless your pushing serious horsepower. The only advantage would be vents that allow air to run through the brakes to keep them cool. But otherwise there is nothing to really gain at all
