My Celebrity is my summer car so it does not get driven in snow. I know the airdam would not make it. I also fear a bellypan would fill up with ice, both from driving and from condensation. Wheel skirts should be removable in any season, what if you get a flat? My experience is that with less wheelwell clearance, the road boogers accumulate faster.

However some aeromods would be better in winter. Roof rack removal makes it a lot easier to clear snow off the top. Grille block would help it warm up faster. My Celebrity wiper cover will fit the Pontiac 6000 winter wagon since they share the same cowlpiece, but hard to say if itll work out or not. Narrower tires are better in the snow too.
