"Those little nubby bits on the roof where it meets the rear screen are an aerodynamic device intended to reduce the drag created by the air as it rushes over the car."


A few magazines covered this. Who knows if it really works...if it does, why aren't more automakers using it
They sell those thingies as packs of 6 for approx $20.00 around here. Cheepskate plastic though. You need to treat, prep and paint em before you can mount em...

Extremely ugly... I would prefer a DTM style spoiler with vortex generating winglets facing upwards and splitters at the rear bumper (valance style) so the air flow will be headed and guided...
