Jim,

See my post at....

http://ecomodder.com/forum/362869-post517.html

There is an equation that predicts the "ideal" tear drop shape.

You can use that equation to work out a full size template for a car tail extension.

Someday, if I ever make another "improved" copy of the tail, I would use this same technique to better adhere to AeroHeads original shape.

Jim.
