It would be fairly safe to say that an airdam would improve the fuel economy of an average vehicle by 2%-6%. Results will vary from vehicle to vehicle. Generally speaking, the smoother the underbody of a car is, the smaller the effect from an air dam. If your underbody is completely smooth, an air dam may actually hurt your fuel economy.
If I could get a 6% improvement I’d be very happy.
The underneath of my Rondo is an aerodynamic nightmare IMO.
I will do the lawn edging mod once I set my Scangauge to set an accurate baseline.😉👍
Just need to figure out how to fasten the side skirts....was actually thinking of using the industrial strength Velcro
