It''s been very windy up here so couldn't do some Drag calculations.
But removed the antanna.


I also relocated the front number plate, the oem plate-holder extruded about 4cm from the body, which doesn't improve the cars aerodynamic shape.
I also wanted to (particly)block the lower grill, becouse the engine's never got hot and I didn't hear the radiator fan turn on, except if i was standing still on a warm day in traffic.
So i combined the 2, made sideplates for the plate holder, so that there wouldn't be a low pressure aeria behind the plate (which couses turbilance)


Today I bought a "spoiler" off an opel corsa b, it has side flaps which turn inwarth.
I want to modify it so that is will be a kammback spoiler.
I'm gonna experiment with fluidviz to see what's the best setup to let to flow stay attached.
