I have instrumentation, and the big difference in acceleration and coasting inspired me to do a boat tail on the Insight. The modification has to look good, and I want it completed before the GGP- ruling out the boat tail.

You are dead on, regarding what I want to do. My question for the experts here is this: What are the optimum dimensions? I don't expect people to research my car, and build it for me, but if one could direct me to a source to learn on, or advise equations to calculate, that would really be appreciated. Extensive searching has shown me LITTLE on how to do this myself; it's all either a product, beyond my comprehension, or something completely abstract from my purpose.
