Fact is, 2 years ago I came to this sight thinking the same way as you looking for support on dimpling a car, I now know they are unsuitable.
What about what Mythbusters, when they tested that car with golf ball dimples the size of baseballs. They received better mpgs. Was it because of the baseball size dimples? Does the dimple size make a difference?
