hmmm well I don't want to mess with the roof mounted airbags so removing the rack is out. I might fill the holes but it gets narrower at the back so it might add unwanted frontal area I think I'll leave that alone. the vortex generators are actually in the best location after many days of testing in the rain. I had as friend chase and she watched the water come off the roof. When they were attached at the current location the vortices angled down at the desired 15*. I am concentrating more of my effort on making the front and bottom more aerodynamic. The top is pretty much done.
