If you rotated them 90 degrees and placed them behind the fenders, you have a good place to run ducting for output from the brakes.

can't believe someone would shave off their doorhandles & delete the side moulding for a 'cleaner' look - then add fake gills and sill moulding to fragment the lines again

I'm not sure i would've done that to my car but honestly i don't think it looks too bad. Plus it's not a total rice can cause it does have a 13b to back it up.
