So I guess it's either boat tail or goat tail.
The main problem with a VW Beetle is the steep rear end. And since it's not a box shape is sure would be hard to do an aero-trailer.
Other than that I figured that I could start with a front spoiler and perhaps wheel skirts. The bottom is already very flat, except around the transaxle. I'm not sure how to deal with the flat windshield.
The main thing I can do is to just drive slower. (Try not to get stuck behind me in traffic
.)
