We have speculated that adding a clear "boat tail" would be the best way to make a mirror more aero. The problem is that the clear material often distorts the reflection off the mirror, and/or adding more reflactions, rendering the mirror useless.


We have speculated about the optical distortion and light glare on different 'boattail' shapes.



...and try to optimize it by having a flat plane parallel to the side glass.
