Hmm, well I think it could be significantly improved as it's just a piece of vertical plastic. I will attach a larger, rounded tire spat to it.

Another area I see as an easy, no negative mod is the sides of the black grill. Only the center of the grill is open. So I'm thinking of rounding those side areas to help the air move past easier. Maybe some sheet aluminum with expanding foam underneath.

Cool thread. I am working on reading it all.
