Canoe fairings for the rear wheels would also help for 3-seasons driving.

That's definitely something I'm wanting to do, I'm just not sure how to do that one either. Bolt on some aluminum around the tire seems easy enough - I had rust above my rear wheel wells, so I cleaned it up, sanded it down, coated it with plastidip and bolted on some tread plate above it and painted it black, it actually looks really cool - I've got quite a bit left over, might try that. I feel that the diamond pattern might drag down some aerodynamics, but I also feel it would still be functional, and I wouldn't have to purchase anything new.
