Yeah, especially the one in the middle. :D
They're not sharp and angular as Mitsu specified. They are soft and rounded. If they produce vortices, they will probably be weak and poorly formed. Too round and they just make turbulence, which is what the antenna base in the middle is doing. Plus the leading edge of the bar is acting like a stall strip, tripping the airflow right at the point you're trying to keep it attached. Might be a good application for VGs. Might not be a good implementation of VGs. |
I wonder if these would help on the roof of my Dodge GrandCaravan?

We only have one example but it's not necessarily a bad one. I wouldn't be surprised if WRC cars had them. |
You have other cheaper options besides airtabs like airflow systems, $10 for 25ft strip:

Darnit! I did not understand that.
So that means their cheapest is $3/foot and you still need glue and paint (it's purple!)... |

In back of vans/suvs, there's many popular styles nowadays:
- downward sloping spoiler (bmw x3) - spoiler/wing with a hole (toyota hilander) - camback (prius, but not 2-box suv) https://www.analogstereo.com/images/om/bmw_x.jpg https://www.hibredtoyotas.com/toyota-...-spoiler-2.jpg https://image.automotive.com/f/miscel...yssey-left.jpg https://www.familycar.com/roadtests/T...2/LeftRear.jpg https://www.etendance.com/images/Peug...is%20Aster.jpg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...ce_black_r.jpg Unclear what's better and how it plays with the rest of the underbody aero. |
