Hi Buddy,
I actually installed an air dam to improve the airflow. I also added
some air guides on the side of the car to help direct airflow around the
passenger compartment.
It really depends on the aerodynamics of your car as to what would
improve it. I got lucky in that a professor did a study on the Porsche
914, and showed where to improve the car. Wheel covers provide a huge
improvement, BTW - more than fender skirts.
Cheers, Peter

Has anyone else installed a body pan for aerodynamics? I just put one under
my electercel front to back, minus a 9" for a fan intake. .064 Sheet
aluminum with some 1" square tube under the motor bay for support. After
doing my regular drive of 84 miles round trip several times it seems to
getting 3% to 6% increase in mileage at ~50mph avg. I am thinking fender
skirts on the rear next.
