That will help, but the same material further aft on the ends of the 
stabilizer (leaving the elevator the same size) would be more effective, 
and easier to build, since it's simply an extension of the existing 
airfoil, and the existing h/s would act as your sanding template. I'd 
make it out of foam sanded to shape and covered in two layers of carbon 
fiber, personally.  It would be out of the prop stream and in smoother 
air, if that's even a consideration.

If you like that way that looks though, it will help.

KR> Tail Addition

I followed how others have extended thier horizontal stabilizer for for more 
stability and thought this may be a simple solution.
