Doesn't look the best. However, if it weren't for my religious beliefs on trying my best to not scandalize people I probably would be willing to drive a car like that if it were safe lol.

Ah! The age-old conflict between religion and aerodynamics.

Boat tails are relatively safe, except you don't want to cut too close to things on the outside of a corner.

OTOH they look to me like a literal pain in the b*tt. I can't consider one for my XFi because the parking space I have is limited.

The next most effective is the boxed cavity with separation edges. No additional length. Compare an earlier Prius with the later models. They added separation edges on the rear bumper.

I won't be building a boat-tail for the Prius, for the same reason. But a drag spoiler isn't out of the question.

Did someone say Prius?

The easiest thing to do is an grill block.

Step 1. Buy black pipe insulation from Home Depot or another building supply store
Step 2. Cut the insulation to the width of your grill
Step 3. Slide the open end of the pipe insulation over the horizontal slates in your grill
Step 4. Secure the pipe insulation to the grill with zip ties.

Alternate: Use duct tape instead of insulation - Choose any color duct tape you want.
Step 1: Clean your grill
Step 2: Cut small pieces of duct tape long enough to bridge the vertical gap between two or more openings in your grill.
Step 3: Stick these vertical pieces of tape to the grill with good overlap to make them stick
Step 4: Run a long piece of duct tape left to right to connect all the small pieces.

I was in the military for way too long so I am immune to relentless obsolete nonsensical stuff.

The bestest taillight is a 1959 Cadillac lens in a 1956 Corvette housing. I can't find a pic, so here's the 1962 Mercury Monterey. It's close, but needs a windsplit.
