What are the chances of a lift-off bubble top and rear skirts with skegs?

Bubble top - low chance. If I'm moving somewhere that's 72F year round, I'm leaving the top down and windows open. Saving grace may be that speed limits there are low.
Skirts - depends on if the powers that be will let me get away with it. Apparently they don't care at all about emissions there, but they have very strict standards around safety. Aftermarket suspension, as an example, is outright banned if there are any welds on a cast piece. Change a ball joint to one that isn't OEM or OEM equivalent, and you suddenly have a "low volume vehicle" that needs to be certified - theoretically. I bet there's a lot that flies under the radar, but I'm guessing skirts will not. So maybe a $10 coroplast skirt will have a $400 certification appointment.
I'll explore it further.
