You can:
*block the grille
*lower it so much
*yank the wipers
*yank the mirrors
*add MOONs
*add stabilizing air dams, spoilers,fences
*HOT ROD's Camaro got to use a bellypan

I finally got around to grabbing my rule book.
The Fusion is an oddball, because there is no class for "production-based fuel cell car". This was either run as a time-only car or as an Electric (/E) which is Special Construction (basically, anything goes as far as aero is concerned).
I don't know what VW Jetta you are referring to.
There are three diesel truck categories, Diesel Truck (/DT), Modified Diesel Truck (/MDT), and Unlimited Diesel Truck (/UDT). /DT is intended to represent a typical diesel pickup truck with all panels in their stock positions and almost no streamlining (mostly following the rules of the Gas Coupe category /GC). Both the Nissan and Ford above appear to be /DTs
Grill blocks are specifically barred.
Belly pans are specifically barred.
A flush tonneau cover is allowed, but no other streamlining behind the cab is allowed, no spoiler.
An air dam is allowed, but the bumper must remain stock and it may not block the grill.
Mirrors may be removed, but door handles and window trim must remain stock.
Hot Rod's Camaro raced in a variety of categories, typically as a Classic Altered or Competition Coupe. Altered allows significantly more streamlining, including a "Step Pan", CC goes even further. Classic is for cars 1949-1981, their Camaro is a 1981.
