Not quite sure on the exact angles and all that, perhaps a quick chat with Aerohead or someone along those lines will be able to fill in the details.

Basically, I was saying in that first pic, the floor should angle up towards the rear, like a big flat diffuser type. But as shown in the second pic, you'll have to 'notch' out a place for the rear wheel. The idea is to smooth all that out as aero as possible. Look at the Aptera and others, you'll see the direction I am talking about.

Great to see progress on this! Can't wait to see it finished, and some YouTube vids.
