[DeTomaso] L bumper stops wind noise ?

[Joseph F. Byrd, Jr.]

If the dimples also scattered radar/laser, it might be worth it

Isn't wind noise a property of an object's inefficient movement and speed in
air and that's why no  one never hears a golf ball until it hits you.
Speaking about golf balls did any one ever see the Myth Busters episode
where they put golf ball dimples on a car and actually made the care more
efficient. But who wants to drive around in a car that looks like a golf
ball that would be as bad as having s goat for a pet,,, no one wants a goat
as a pet.
