Default carbon induction vent (yes or no?)

When i got the car it had a blitz induction kit on it so i fitted the carbon vent. I've recently managed to get a standard airbox so i don't need the vent. So the question is do i keep it to be a little different or lose it to keep it clean?

No mate.. they look rubbish IMO carbon or not.

Maybe they help airflow but personally i think there are better ways of doing it.

actually another thought popped into my head - Those vents remind me of the chav individuals that attach a pulsar bonnet vent onto an XR2i.

Doesnt really work with the car.
