Hi Aerohead,
The wing would not be in the forward stagnation point at low speeds, as it would be say 3 feet out in front of the car for a 1 foot wing. At some speed, the 2 foot gap would not handle the airflow and the wing would loose its effectiveness, as the stagnation grows forward and the wing and car become aerodynmically one.
This is not mechanically practical. The weight of the whole contraption might get up to 100 pounds, or more, and down force/torque on the front of the car might lead to handling problems.
