Here are the high point thoughts I had on this:
Main areas of focus:
- Front air dam to engine block/axles.
- control arms and wheel wells.
- gas tank & rear axle to rear valence.
Considerations:
- Cooling and change of air flow around motor and radiator.
- Same cooling factor w/ brake calipers/rotors & ducting.
- Fixed vs Movable components. (chassis vs control arms/axles, motor
flex.)
- All in One shield vs component pieces.
Other Miscelania:
- Rear valence and air flow reintegration.
- side skirts & vertical under panels.
- Leaving an open area under the space between oil pan and fire wall.
- Materials; flexibility vs strength vs cost vs weight.
