Mark, to answer your question, no one knows exactly what affects anything aerodynamically on Panteras. As Tom said, it depends on your air dam and front end rake. But more importantly, none of this stuff is effective below about 125 mph, so experiment carefully! And don't forget that a car is essentially a box on 4 springs, so if you increase downforce in front, the rear is going to lift, pivoting around the center of balance which is about 6" in front of the engine. Fast guys who have added air dams or big front spoilers have found that the TAIL then gets light- above 160- leading to a small spoiler on the trailing edge of the body. A wing is effective but adds more drag- enough to slow a car maybe 20 mph on the top end. 'Course, if you're only interested in the look, anything that pleases you is fine- its your car!
