Hi red devil
strangley enough the bull bars are known for decreasing front drag. i picked up 1mpg or 6.5% improvement. also the angle of the board defects air upwards and leaves a dead spot of air on bonnet and use my wipers on intermitten when i would use continus wipe and less dirt on it. Found out about dead air spot when wiper arm fell off at 50mph and nevered moved until i picked it up off bonnet and air flow through vent is very poor unless using fan before it was more than adaquate so that is staying. bull bar in front of headlights will be filled/covered with polycarbonate/lexan. Side view hopefull sdded which i will cover rear arches and copy moon discs for rear wheels. Side skirts are going to be fitted
