Why did we stop using Louvers?

Because they were invented before computer simulations of airflow. It turns out they do exactly the opposite of what people thought and actually pull the car upwards instead of pushing it down.

I thought they were for preventing people from being able to see into the hatchback area without having to cut the cargo capacity in half with a parcel shelf.

Did we really need computer simulations? Can’t you use like smoke and a leaf blower?

What if I just want to look cool and have some sun shade for my rear window

Nothing wrong with that, you just can’t have that and a fast racecar.

I just remembered I drive a honda so I'm not getting a fast racecar no matter what I do
