Screwing in Wooden Dowel Rods to the inside of the tail vertically, could help create a skelton inside not allowing the lengthy coroplast (sag), creating the steep angle just behind the window, as is.

Thank you. You have given me some inspiration to an easy way to do some testing on my Insight without fear of the cardboard rainstorm
