Default xenon/cs6 side scoops - inserts?

does anybody know if these come with inserts? they look a little "unfinished" with the inner region also being body color instead of having a faux louver vents or something like that.

that's a bummer. well tomorrow i'm gonna paint the inside of the scoops flat black to get a more finished look, hopefully it'll spice 'em up a bit more. pics will be posted when done!

They definitely look good painted black. I thought they looked shiny. You can see a highlight in the pic. But it looks very black, not a grayish black like a flat black sometimes looks.
