And why aren't those ribs areas either side of the rear tire not all taillight? Like a big ribbed Mercedes one from the 90s?

I also think its a prime candidate for coroplast fairings. My idea is to angle the inner surface away from body in the rear. So when steering, the fairing clears the body. In front a rounded blunt surface would be fine, or maybe even leave the bare tire as OEM.
As for the grooved side panels at rear wheel, I think those side panels are removable for tire changes and access to brakes and rear suspension. Adding lighting would add complexity, cost, and would increase power consumption. Just my guess.
