Thanks for the info everyone. I think I will just leave it alone for now. Sometimes I get to fiddling with stuff and end up taking a good project and hurting it.
While I do agree that a full belly would be very beneficial, that's a bit of work. I am hoping to see pretty good gains from this cap and it was easier to fab up than I think a belly pan would be. As for spats, I don't think the gains I would see from them would be as great as the cap is hopefully going to be. But hey, what do I know. I haven't researched a belly pan yet. I have plans for a 2"-3" drop in the front and a 4" drop in the rear. That coupled with a larger airdam might negate the need for a belly pan. That is in the future though. I am contemplating wheel arch gap fillers and some form of pizza pan covers or something similar, but for now I have to get the cap finished.
I tried to find a thread on here for the process of tuft testing this cap. Is there a set of "rules" to do this or is it something like place 6" pieces of yarn equally spaced at 8" intervals all over the cap then drive and film?
This has been a fun project so far and I am happy that the shape has been so well received. But it is no where near complete and I have to figure out how to skin it yet. I have some ideas but I want to try them on a smaller basis and then see if they will work for the entire cap.
