Flat plate

Hello, well the pan is pretty flat already. When I was in private pilot school, I was taught the concept of dirty air. Dirty air, consists of the dantance of the plane to the ground. While a plane is landing, half the width of its wing span, that ditance above ground; the air acts as a float or cushion. The VW pan being that close to the ground, will suffer the same effect. I think the best way is deflection (air dam, front spoiler) don't let it under the car as much as possible.
