The air will not be attached, but as illustrations show the path to re-pressurization is there (hole in air the car leaves behind it).

I guess if you need a great departure angle go for it.

The Bonneville style rear deck extensions didn't have much there because I assume they were so low to the ground, not much flow under the car.

I think this departure diffuser angle subject will only be relative with full belly pan.

With tray off, looks to be full carbon fiber belly pan to the front.
