I get the Photoshop sketch in the sense of some air management for down-force and or radiators up front GT40-ish. Otherwise it's more convoluted than my eyes want to see at this time. Maybe once you get the rear done I can appreciate the whole package better.

Following the template sections I fail to see an increase in tangent angles of 2x for the sides.

However, the sides may not have to deal with the ground pressure wave in the same way the top does, so in theory I can see that happening.

Typical top view aero-template use/overlay below.
