I am having a hard time understanding what you are getting at with the wavy corners. Is there any way you could sketch something out so I could get a better idea. I'm not really knowledgeable enough to understand the acoustic side of aerodynamics. I've never really looked into it.

Will you be testing both wings and spoilers?
Will you be able to test combinations of both?
Yes, F1 cars have one type of plate at the wing ends because of regulations, I'm guessing you are exploring ideas outside of these restrictions - yes?
Just think if these fins below had been curved inward - the possibilities for down-force and stability with minimum surface area/drag.
