I am wondering will I built similar cargo box people have done here or not. Final kammback will be the same tinted polycarbonate as the rear fender skirts. I did not want to waste that material in the demo versions because its more expensive...

No problem with rear hatch opening with me, because I have long hands. With shorter people the kammback is little bit on the way, but you can avoid with that by little ducking down

Kammback did make the car little bit more unstable at 160 km/h or 100 MPH speeds but nothing dramatic. So i might have to use both hands on the steering wheel at the moment if it is windy...
