Okay, I've done a quick and dirty 2D orthographic projection that attempts to show what I am proposing:



This is still ~6' off the back of the car, but it has a much smaller rear fascia, and should have a much smaller wake. The top and sides of the upper (red) part are ~15 degrees, and the sides of the lower (blue) part are ~9 degrees.
