Aero mod gains below 55 mph?

95% of my driving is at 55 mph or less.
Would I see any gains for aero mods?

I did to a lower grill block a while ago and saw minor improvements but that didn't cost me anything.

Debating on pizza pan hubcaps and rear wheel skirts but I don't want to drop $50 plus the time to make it if I am only going to end up seeing a 0.5 mpg improvement.

I have looked at other threads with peoples A-B-A runs and some show gains of 1.5 - 2.5 mph while others are only claiming very slight improvements at 55mph.

Opinions?
