I agree Chaz, but I would be more aggressive and make the top more "Kamm-back-y". Instead of making it as a typical cover with the back edge sloping front to rear, go the opposite way. If I had Wi-Fi, I'd draw a mock up of what I'm suggesting.

And rounding out the edges as you get closer to the rear helps Cd, but makes the construction a bit harder.
