that is why I said to use the mini boattail, a virtual would be too uncontrolled,
might cut down the low pressure area, but would cause turbulence. The yurastyle neo prius has VGs on the mirrors, but there is far less drag area to fill.

Aren't these store-bought VGs? (though they're the only ones i found that seemed to work.)
