Yes, when I ran across the drag % details for each modification to VERA I figured that I'd better do a video! I used VERA as a role model for my first aero car modifications back in about 1989.

I was thinking I could just use that adhesive spoiler and run it along the edge of the back window/c-pillar.
For separation edges? You could do that - easy and it would look fine - but I'd test with cardboard first.

I hadn't though of raising the spoiler either. Do you think the angle of the spoiler matters? The stock one on my car points a little toward the front of the car, but if I'm making risers I could probably just account for that.
It might look odd but perhaps have the spoiler top surface tilting the other way (ie downwards towards the rear) - like a hatch rear extension to reduce wake area?
