The front fenders are relatively high and it looks like they divide the air either to the center of the hood or to the sides. then they drop back down just in time for the high pressure off the windshield to fill that void. so abnormal high pressure on the fwd hood makes the air stay laminar, but then there ducts further back on the hood and it looks like maybe they are intake.
air dam has intake in the center low which is what we have been saying.
airdam slopes back at the top, fwd at the bottom. bringing the air up away from the bottom edge so it can't spill off and go below. the outside ends of the air dam are sharper than normal . why? does this divert air around the fornt wheel well? canopy starts out much narrower than the body and then starts getting even narrower right away. need different views, what else can we glean from their design?
