Thanks! It was your actually thread, that I read first that gave me in inspiration for modding my front grille! haha!

I love this idea of the 'pizza hub caps' too:

I'm wondering If I can modify my inner rims to put this behind the rims. These are the standard Kia rims, which aren't too bad for aero:



But I'm thinking a pizza tray behind them would stop the airflow from mixing. By adding this behind the rims, it should increase their aerodynamic efficiency without me having to spend a heck of a lot on new rims. Definitely have to do a before and after though. I wonder if any gain would be offset by the extra weight. hmmmm
