Aerodynamic Streamline Template Picture Library

I was thinking it would be neat if there was a single thread where people post up there Aerodynamic Streamline Template (AST) pictures, either in stock form or modded. Users could search to see if there model of car is here rather than start from scratch, and can also gain inspiration from other users. I would like to keep the discussion minimal in this thread. Just pictures and headings and links.

these are a few templates I've done to satisfy my curiousity about cars i own or consider owning.

to start, here's my car. not bad, it starts at 18% template.
2004 Ford Focus


2012 Hyundai I30 (Elantra GT)


2012 Ford Fusion


Nissan 240SX


2013 Ford Focus ST

Interesting stuff! I'm surprised at how little has changed over the years in terms of roof profiles.

Fair enough, but ignoring the vehicles that seem to be designed to burn fuel there are a lot of good fits to the template that you've posted, including the sixty year old Hornet.

I think that there a lot of cars/trucks never bothered to be put to the template because they are so bad.

Many displayed here would be hardly representative of the norm I'm afraid.
