I would vote also to keep the rear open.
With regards to doing some radius back there,I don't have any specific numbers for that kind of a mod.
I went ahead and did them on my T-100.It took a full 8-hrs to do the fabrication and install.
I'm presuming that they will assist the merging of the out flowing stream from the wheel well,with that flowing straight down the side.
If you've driven next to cars in the rain you may have noticed a jet of water-laiden air blasting transversely out the wells.This is what you're going after.
If you haven't seen basjoos AeroCivic,he has the ultimate solution.
