Fairly recently, Wouter Remmerie, of AirShaper, 'told' us that, to achieve a single CFD road vehicle aerodynamic 'solution', of high certainty, will require an investment of about $ 4,000 ( US ).
This is what you'd pay for 1-hour in a full-scale, rolling-road wind tunnel.

The question you might answer for members and guests is:
1) What will be the cost to create the 'model' that you're going to have 3D-scanned to create the data-cloud that will be imported into the CFD program ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Once you've 'paid' the $ 4,000 for your 'first' answer, what will it cost to 'modify' your model, and go through the whole process the second time ?
