Thanks! Indeed, I'd love to measure the aero on the car or get access to some data from a similar setup.
Mounting a wing like this to a trunk lid is just a waste of time.
I'll be building a full under body tray, fitting a rear diffuser and then installing a front splitter/canard setup.

Of course. I've got a lot of work to do outside of the garage to do this week, but I'm hoping to have her spit-shined and ready for driveway photo shoot time on Friday or Sat.
I have nothing else to do maintenance-wise other than change the oil again (because of the recent dyno session) and then fill her with fuel.

Haha I know, right? Now when I walk into my garage I'm like
