I have some pre-fit side skirts available. They are three inches tall and the bottom flares out 1.25 inch.

Can anyone tell me if this is a worthwhile modification?

If I do this, when bellypan time comes, would it be better to match the pan to the bottom of these and the air dam?
What would be the final road clearance? Consider the https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=breakover+angle.

Speed bumps are also known as a sleeping policeman in British English and Caribbean English and a judder bar in New Zealand English. A speed bump is a bump in a roadway with heights typically ranging between 3 and 4 inches (7.6 and 10.2 cm). The depth of speed bumps is typically less than or near to 1 foot (30 cm); contrasting with the wider speed humps, which are typically 10 to 14 feet (3.0 to 4.3 m) in depth.

I've also been toying with ideas involving replacing the entire hatch with plexi, making the hatch easily removable and side window visors.
I've seen it suggested that the closed and latched hatch contributes to the stiffness of the body. You might need some internal gusseting added.
