I think the reason I was most disappointed was due to figures I'd seen about other vehicles in "the literature" - the Cd gains claimed from a smooth underside were far more than I experienced.

Anyway, it'll be back on the car. I just have to decide if I'm going to do the lowering first. I think that makes sense, as the control arms' positions will change relative to the car's floor, which will affect the tray design slightly.

So, what's the story with your front air dam? I saw in another post you mentioned you've since removed it. Feel like starting a thread?
