Extendable boat tail framework. Just bar clamped fer piccies. It will slide in/out from the aero cap main rails and git pinned once they are extended.

The rear diffuser and rear skirts will be extended as well probably in the same manner. Thinking about using a reinforced mat as the skin...kinda like one of those summer blinds that can be rolled up and put away in the back of the truck bed.

We'll see how far I'll go with this. The hatch will still be functional with the boat tail on.
