Might be really horrible with skirts on, but I don't plan to do long trips at winter.

I don't think that snow will be a problem if the front skirts will only be partials (just enough that the tire doesn't touch when turning): They will be smaller than the rear skirts, in fact only at the front and top of the wheel well, plus heat from the engine will melt any snow that doesn't fall out. I say go for it.

That's proof that the aeromods are working! And your fuel log shows it
