A difficult one..

I'm interested in improving the aero of all my cars, but any overt mods will draw attention from all and sundry...

so I'm looking for " stealth" aero mods...

Let me know what you think..

I can see that a bellypan would work
Grille block should be doable, you can make it from transparent material too.

Bellypan of course, but it is not very easy to attach without ruining the car in process, means lot of new holes.

Filling gaps of bonnet etc. then painting filler with non glossy black does not change appearance a lot, but it requires lot of work and gain is not too great.

Moving antenna or removing is also small gain, but is not very clear to general public that there has been some change.

Those mods that make some difference and does not change looks are only few, best gain seem to be at the rear and not much possible without changing looks of car.
