You can also leave the roof as is,and just add a false K-form structure to slow the contour.
You'd be lofting the curvature up to the 'Template' as VW does with the 1-liter car.And it could be open all inside,with a horizontal shelf extending back kinda like Ernie Rogers did with his 'Bug Wing.'
The whole attachment would effectively be a box cavity.On the passenger side C-Pillar buttress extension you'd want to cut in a window for the new blindspot.
