Message	This is an excellent rep of what drag on the Z is all about. Seeing that alot of new(er) cars now have isolated the fwd parts of the wheelwell openings as a sore drag spot. I already have some small plastic plates (barely visible) in both of the wheel well openings front/back, to try to reduce some drag I guess, fwiw.... Here's a pic of what I mean. Enlarged in this pic, but really just small simple plastic pieces that stick down about an inch to 1.5 inches I'd say... A good and USEABLE post, thanks....
