RV-14 NACA Vents

Has anyone considered moving the NACA vent openings forward in the fuselage so that air can be ducted to vents in the panel rather than the default location? Any negative performance issues anyone can think of? I think this would look a lot cleaner but it would be some work. I'm sure I can make it work, I just don't know what I don't know! Thoughts?
 
i cant imagine it causing any problems however it would really be a pain to do a flush repair on the existing hole for the vents in the side skins. Its possible but it will be tough to patch in and it not be visible after the airplane is painted.
