the nose was designed by two criteria.. need a place to put the plate vertically and round.. its all rounded to push air around and over the car.. it wasn't not modeled, I have no way of doing that.. however by doing "bug splat tests" it's very efficient, the bugs only hit the nose where the plate goes in front.. I was quite surprised for my shoot from the hip methods. made a big difference top speed coasting down hills and in throttle needed to run at 55mph. Thats all I can go by i guess
How would I model this? software or something?
