Very interesting seeing all the testing you do.
Thanks for sharing the results with all of us.

I have been away from the forum for ages, and am just now seeing this test.

I tested an A pillar extension recently, but this was just to see how large you would have to make something like a ( aerodynamic ) fence before you could control the flow of air.

I remember the Plymouth Superbird had a chrome piece that fitted to the A pillar.
I have seen it refered to as a " wind deflector ".

I noticed the new Toyota Camry has a built in VG near the mirror.
Surely this is not a new idea.
Why are car msnufacturers just now doing it ?
