Here are some box cavity studies as an alternative:

Would you mind sharing the link to the source of that image Freebeard?
I was hoping to avoid any belly work through lowering the car once I've got the rim and tyre choice sorted out (Toying with using a stiff thick line of rubber brush, which will hopefully have low air infiltration, descending from the bottom of the front panel I'm making to restrict as much air as possible from going underneath while avoiding the problem of contact with the road?)
And Aerohead, I know relative to what would be achieved from lengthening and enclosing it wouldn't be as significant but could worthwhile gains be seen from adding length but not enclosing it on the end? Access to the boot is important for my work and enclosing the tail makes that more difficult.
Thanks for the input folks!
