'falsies' and drag reduction

I mentioned this at the '2018 Jeep Wrangler' thread.
It relates to a 1993 invention I had considered for a patent.A 'padded bra',which included a foam insert,sculpted for streamlining,and including ducting as well as Velco'd clear headlight and turn signal covers.
After looking into small entity patenting and manufacturing I abandoned the idea.I didn't have as much courage as bondo and others.
Here's the basic image which would have illustrated the invention concept.

Discarded foam cushions,electric carving knife,contact cement,Velcro,Naughahyde,seam-ripper,an existing low-cost commercially-produced bra (to rob attachment parts),and a gear-drive sewing machine would allow the fabrication.
I'm 'prior art',no one else has patented such a thing,so go ahead and use it if it can help you.
