No, seriously... I made something awesome. I made a wind blocking fairing to go behind the seats of the Fiat.
The paint isn't done, but I tested it before I started painting, and with the windows down at 55, there is less wind buffeting than there was with the windows up, at 15 before.
Also, I'm laptop-less this weekend, so I had to improvise... Filco Minila keyboard with Cherry browns, and a Nexus 7, FTW.

Hot Damn, I had forgotten all about that! I used to have a big red towel that I kept on the back shelf and I would tuck it between the headrests! It is pretty amazing how much of an effect it has, isn't it? I can only imagine that yours would work much better. It certainly looks a lot better than mine did.

It would probably look and work better, and more Porsche like if it weren't at a 45 degree angle, relative to horizontal. I FUBARed when I put it together and... I'm sure I could rotate it, with a PVC coupler, but I'm not sure I want to go through the trouble, right now.
