You know I debated about that. I wasn't sure if that would be too dated a look; too retro. This particular design seems to lend itself better to less curvy gills. Believe it or not the ones I have on there now are curved somewhat; just not as much as the 5th gen. These are intended to be functional not just a styling gimmick so they need to be wider than the 5th gen gills.
Anyways here are 3 versions; D1a has your idea with the gills taller and more curved. D1b has my idea with straighter gills but I did make them narrower and taller. D1c has a NACA style side scoop just to show what that might look like.
