So far black, Green, blue and gray look make the car look a lot better.
How is it done poorly? please provide an example of a non-poorly setup then.

It just dosnt flow with the design. The airducts look like an afterthought. What kind of example do you want other than looking at other cars with intake vents all around the cars. They look much smoother.

Like i said, In certain colors, the ducts appear much less intrusive and the car looks much improved, due to a camo-effect blocking some overstated features... In others colors the ducts looked forced and like an afterthought.

I think they are not an afterthought at all and in a great location. More importantly they are in a good location.

Location is fine... I said design. It interrupts the flow of the cars design.
