Funny thing is: the first two that I made were COMPLETELY eyeballed, and way off the template, yet had great results (10-15% at similar testing speeds). This one I consciously kept close to the template, and it made the smallest improvement.
Though the previous two were on hatchbacks, so there was more room for improvement.
