i think it should be fine. 1) the vents look big to us because we are seeing it at the angle parallel to each flap. the flaps actually protect the cooler quite well if you look at it from the tire's location 2) when you are driving air will be flowing quite fast through it, so sand, rocks will be blown away before even getting close.

if there is a fine mesh it would block the air flow significantly.
