I would say that no one added them, most if not all were re-painted red by the owners or someone that liked the "fire breathing red" look of the red-orange in what is supposed to be hood scoops or fresh air intakes on a performance hood, just like my friend did to his formerly black blocked off NON-Air Grabber hood '69 GTX. They were black and this "was" a survivor just before he had it re-painted and had them painted red-orange

BLACK for NON-Air Grabber, no question about it IMO.

This photo is wrong, they were and should have remained the original BLACK color/colour

You said most if not all. Does that mean some block off plates were painted Red at the factory?
