trailer
If the amount of use and distance traveled justifies the cost, a contemporary, best-case commercial product for ideas would be Peter Brock's 'Aerovault' trailer, @ bre2.net/aerovault.info.
Peter designed the Corvette Sting Ray and Shelby Daytona Coupe.

Also, U-HAUL trailers utilize aerodynamics researched by NASA in the 1970s. Their fenders suck, but Brock's can be an example of a solution for that.

AeroStealth did a couple of You-Tube videos on trailer aerodynamics based on the NASA data.You might search for John Gilkison Aerodynamics videos.

Ideally, the trailer and Jetta would be the same frontal area where they meet, with no gap ( articulated buses and railcars ), and then boat-tail from there back. And then reality intrudes!
You're the only one who knows what you're willing to put up with.
Make sure the pain justifies the cure.
