So whether or not I made a recirculating bubble on top of the trunk, the greater effect could be from how the spoiler effects the bubble behind the car. The effect behind the car might be positive enough that if I produced a negative effect on top of the trunk, the net result is still positive... I figure it could be very potentially misleading without tufting the whole back of the car and filming from a chase vehicle, which we can do the next time you're in Kansas
