redneck's is a good example to follow. It seemed light and stout.

So what happens between 85 and 90%? Prius tail lights?

I'd would think drop pants down behind the rear wheels and make the tail a half-circular arc. The outside follows The Template and the inside is an exponential horn to couple with the base pressure. aerohead can probably falsify this if necessary, I think the base [low-]pressure communicates forward through the horn and accelerates the air moving under the car. Produces downforce without drag. Maybe.

It could work, with red and amber LED strip lighting.
