Sleepy Valley makes one for the GEN I and GEN II Mark. If you are into that kind of thing, I mean. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Pro:
Dunno what the return on investment would be other than "looks", as the Marks are pretty aerodynamically clean already.

Just remember that, as in the rice burner world, not all ground effects add to the efficiency of the car's design. Some components actually make the car LESS aerodynamic, such as adding non-functional scoops, wings that are more for looks than function, pavement dragging chin spoilers, etc.

Considering the Mark VIII spent many hours in a windtunnel (at least the GEN Is, I donno if the bigger GEN II schnoz was tested) and its look is pretty much perfect to the windtunnel. Raise the trunk a bit, it would probably be more aerodynamic. The underside is where the main advantages come about...everything is tucked away nicely.
I would be shocked if these glue on/drill on plastic parts make the car more aerodynamic. Its all for looks, if you like that kind of stuff.
