cool front air deflector

if you can look closely you can see the clear cover that extends out, to better deflect the air
,im not sure if this was done back in the day ,but this is kinda what i had in mind in the first place, i might still try a rendition of this, it is pretty cool :thumbsup:

That's to reduce the from end lift at high speeds? I remember Dave said 350 lbs. at 100 MPH in stock form. :shock:

I like it Drew. I would opt for as much frontal area as I can get? :thumbsup:

After seeing this, I'm thinking about doing it in metal again...if I can't make my fiberglass version fit.
