Have any of you thought about a pan on the underside like some people are doing? my back bumper looks like a parachute lol. Also any one know the drag coefficient of our car? I can't find it.
Underside pan would be awesome for this car. Also as you mentioned, a rear wheel skirt will also make for a good aero mod. I was able to get 40mpg only once, but i think its doable with lot of care.

I think i am going to do that rear pan atleast because i just looked under there again and it is like a big gaping u shaped lip going against the air flow...i guess honda had only so much money for the bumbers lol because that has to create alot of drag. I am thinking about the wheel skirts, but that drastically changes the look of the car... i like the car...but i like big mpgs....so torn Anyone have pics of an 02-05 si with wheel skirts? If i do that I'll probably get even more people asking if it's one of those new dangfangled electric cars.
