They also claimed they have the lowest drag side mirrors ever made too and that it barely even affects their total overall drag

So by guessing from what the engineers said, doing a full fender skirt and removing mirrors would only drop the cd by 0.005
Do you have a link to the video?
I'd like to watch that. Thanks!
