Put some type of mesh in the front and paint it black to make it look like an air filter ?? i guess you would tape it up paint it glue some black mesh on there and make it look like an airfilter?? and what phaximus said...

get a intercooler for the front. cut away some of the front (where air inlet would be) so the intercooler can be seen.

also, it looks like both bodies are missing the B pillars?

and if going for a high-end drift body look, make hidden body mounts! usually Velcro or strong magnets work well.

B pillar is the pillar in center of body. A pillar is the forward pillar (sides of windshield)

here is a pic of a aftermarket hidden body mount. basically, fabricate a flat bar at the correct height that has Velcro strip on it, and the other side of the Velcro strip is on the inside of the body.
