Howdy, all. New guy here and I wanted to see if the way I placed the aero stencil is about right.

0 is where I think the highest point of the vehicle is, roughly. Pretty sure the wheels are level.

I ask because I'm considering doing a spoiler (or whatever the technical term is) to "raise" the rear hatch up to the stencil line. You can also see where I did some rough guestimating on what angle the wing would need to be at.

Inspiration was the old Chrysler Conquest rear hatch spoiler. I'd like to do something in Lexan or maybe aluminum.

Thoughts?
