That winglet might not be quite as horrible as many suspect, although I doubt it's helping the matter at all.
If you're looking to go all out aero-modding, starting out with a belly pan will help you with noise, aero drag reduction, and keeping the underside of your (still fairly new) ride clean!
Assuming you're still making payments on it, you'll obviously want everything you do to be reversible, at the least, and still have a decent impact, right? Good! Mod the driver!

Yeah theres Ive seen a few with the smooth caps mainly for the looks since its a vehicle based off the 49 Suburban. The caps are available a few place along with rear skirts, at first I was into the look but heck for the savings I buy pass the look for the most part. The main concern now is cost they're asking quite a bit for the skirts, not sure on the smoothies never really looked into those, so Im trying to find cheaper alternitives or so DIY jobs. Been looking around a bit and have found some good info so hopefully soon I could something going. As far as the wing its saying for awhile since it was a costly extra which I dont regret, so maybe in the long run itll come off but we'll have to see on that one, plus the rear just doesnt look right with out it. Then again that kinda thinking isnt going to help getting the best fuel mileage is it?
