are there any intakes our there that make use of the hood vents of the 2018’s? Is that even a thing or viable? So that it would suck in fresh air through that little scoop

I think the amount of air the motor pulls through the grille far exceeds what it could pull through the hood vents. The hood vents are there to help hot air gear get pulled from the engine bay

You really do not want it pulling air through a top down vent like that anyway its not a ram air setup with channels to divert water they are strictly for heat dissipation.

Hood vents are for venting air from the engine bay. You already have air intake in the front.

Was just curious if it would work or not or be effective.
