Well, there are reasons that they do what they do. I can find more pictures of these, and there is no downforce gain from venting the wheel well above to the fender or behind it like this example. It has to do with the attached flow along the side and the turbulence that occurs at the wells.

Frank, post a pick of the "ricer vents", I am not sure what you are talking about.
