You could try some " stealth" mods like a full bellypan and a grille block to the back of the grille.
Paint it flat black and only you will know its there.

( Many cars come factory fitted with flat black closed off grilles that are " fake" , the Ford Focus for example has a large part blocked off. No one except we ecomodders even notice ! )

And air dams can be moved under the bumper so they don't show much, if at all, from the front.

Yes this is my next plan...to make it look better. Now that I know how well it works I dont mind investing some more money and time. As far as monitoring the temperature and other sensors on the car I have an OBDII to Bluetooth adapter that communicates with an app on my phone which allows me to watch everything. Very cool app called Torque.
