Dropping the car reduces the frontal area which helps with drag, so you may want to re-drop it. Also worth noting is unless you have a turbo on that thing you will never reach speeds that need more downforce than came from the factory. (And you would also want the downforce on the front of the vehicle since its front wheel drive)
That wing looks like its going to hurt aero more than help it. I would advise at least testing a partial kammback made of coroplast. Have it follow the same curve as the roofline and cut off at the back of the body.

the rear wing is a nice carbon peice and I'd rather not get rid of it, and, well, I have no idea how its held on. and I think it can be setup for aero, maybe by flipping the wing portion. kammback isnt gonna happen, I dont like those
dropping it will never happen, I live in the land of potholes and snow, I need that height, it was a real problem before, and it corners better, drives better, and is better all around with the new suspension. I will airdam it before it ever goes down again
