Your cap is unfortunately the opposite of what is needed for the best aero: it rises up as it goes back instead of dropping down, adding more frontal area and increasing the wake surface. But if you need the function, and you want to improve the aero, a "ducktail" should help but it should be angled down, not straight back.
