Aerodynamic Fins that Reduce Air Flow on Cars, Trucks, Boats and Airplanes:  U.S. Patent # 6,276,636

These two pictures show the fins on the hood of a 2000 Mazda MPV:

The fins accomplish the following:

• Improve fuel mileage by at least 10% by reducing the amount of friction

• Improve road handling

• Virtually eliminate turbulence when passing semi's 

• Are good looking, can be installed by anyone in about 10 minutes

• Can be made of plastic in any color.

The fins accomplish the same result for a boat as it moves through the water. 

To use, simply attach the fins to a vehicle with double-sided molding tape (tape cannot be used on boats). The fins are very inexpensive to produce, and they pay for themselves very quickly with the increase in fuel mileage. The improvement in road handling make them ideal for emergency vehicles and fleet usage. The fins can also be used on trucks, and tests on aircraft have produced a 13% improvement in fuel efficiency.
