Good point, perhaps next step would be an attempt to incorporate air curtains into the existing bodywork using similar principals.

That is to say, place the airfoil inside of the bodywork with an opening in front.

Where this may get tricky on modern cars is the wheel well liners that older cars lack.

Dremel makes a few tools that may come in handy for such a task.

Knowing where the airbag sensors and wiring are on your particular car will be a must.
