It turned out that the hinge is flexing and not keeping the skirts within its tolerances. So this idea is done, and I will be driving to the beach with my same 0.269 Cd lol.

Instead of front wheel skirts, try using a wheel arch gap filler. You already have the mounting brackets installed. Just cut some coroplast or foam to fit. Then screw and or tape it in place.
That's what I did.
No complicated front skirts.
If it's good enough for VW and their flagship XL1, then it's probably good enough.
