trailer mods

If you have an awning company nearby,they could roll-form square aluminum tubing and heli-arc it into a skeleton framework for an aerodynamic nose which would resemble an Airstream or W-W 2-horse stock trailer.
This framework could have aluminum skin riveted on and painted to match the trailer.
The same company could also make you skeletons for the wheel fenders,to create lower drag fairings.
Short of composites,I can't think of a more direct route to drag reduction which also addressed your aesthetic considerations.
