Default Formula hood scoop plugs?

Just wondering if there is anything available aftermarket or if anyone has made some kind of plug for the open scoops on formula hoods?

I have a VFN formula hood with open scoops, its not functional ram air, just open scoops... in the colder months like early spring or now late fall, the open scoops let too much cold air in and the engine wont ever reach operating temps of the 180 T-stat. This engine has aluminum heads, intake & radiator, and even in 90f summer temps it just reaches 180 and never above... but anything below about 65f it wont reach 180 when driving.

Id like to stuff a piece of foam in there or something else to block off the open scoops... any suggestions?
