These links are great! The only thing i see in the Miata is that the most aerodynamically efficient bumper is not very pedestrian-safe, but the second most efficient (4) looks like the best solution, even giving some good downforce. I have seen that most manufacturers use solution number 3.

I wonder if the third design (or the fourth one), used in conjunction with a partial/total grill block would be as efficient as the other designs without losing that factory look a lot (talking about the Miata)
