i suggest you compare your slope with some of the teardrop-shapes you can find around this forum, but judging by the eye, yours looks close to the ideal shape.
instead of making your rear plate bend forward, you could make it bend backwards, or at least make a top lip, that way you can win some precious height and guide down the airflow lower.
if you worry about sight loss to the rear, you can always turn away your mid rear view mirror and drive like that a couple of days, you will see that you really don't need it so badly.
