I just put one under my electercel front to back, minus a 9" for a fan intake. .064 Sheet aluminum with some 1" square tube under the motor bay for support. After doing my regular drive of 84 miles round trip several times it seems to getting 3% to 6% increase in mileage at ~50mph avg. I am thinking fender skirts on the rear next.
