Default Air Vents/Scoops

I am presently converting a couple of nitro .46 size aircraft to electric. I need to ventilate the area where the LiPo and speed controller are located. I have seen some of the vents/scoops that e-flight ARF's have and these would be a perfect solution but cannot seem to find such a part for sale anywhere I look. Does anyone know of such a part or have a solution to this ventilation problem? I really do not want to just cut some holes in the sides or bottom without some sort of a finished look. The model I am working on today is the Tower Kaos. I have a e-flight 60 mounted and it is all ready to go except for the cooling issues. Hope someone has the solution I am looking for.

Regards,

Dig through the recycle barrel and find a spot on some plastic bottle that can be cut out and used as an air scoop. There are an infiniate number of shapes on small bottles. I have been scavenging the barrel for years. Norm
