simple rear wheel fairings

Not sure if this will link. If it does, it's cedar, open cell polystyrene foam, brushed-on polyurethane barrier coating to protect foam from polyester-based filler, BONDO, primer ,paint, back-fastened wheel fairings behind SPIRIT's rear wheels, attached from the top down.https://ecomodder.com/forum/attachme...4&d=1249763104

DIY trailer wheel fairing construction

https://ecomodder.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=9554&d=1318705563I used the same technique on the trailer. Ultimately, they'll get inside and outside skirts.

Thanks Vekke, that's probably as close as I'm likely to get to the car.

I have once sat in at fair when it was launched and my head was hitting the roof if I moved even little. I am 193cm tall. I will try to ask for test drive and better place to take pictures. Today had toddler in my lap in harness so could not take any measurements of the car just rough estimate and few pictures.
