I have been researching similar ideas, thinking about an expanding foam removable lower grill insert. From what I have seen, I should only go about as low as the center of the wheel, which is almost the bottom of the bumper cover. Since the idea is to send more air over and to the sides rather than under the car, I would think the lower stagnation point would interact with the sides and back making whatever drag-reduction mods you do (or don't do) there more relevant.

My plasti-dip blanking of the top inches of the windshield gets really hot in the direct sun. The paint is on the outside, but the glass is very hot to the touch inside. I used black. Use a bright color? (The art possibilities would be significant, layering different dip colors on the inside of the glass... I see patterns in your future!)
