Sorry, what I meant to say is that the little bit of drag there is from your invention is much less than the drag that is no longer there because of it. Net result is less drag. Very cool.
I think it looks really good as it is.
Patents can be expensive....there are design patents and utility patents...google will explain the difference. Cost can range from $1000 to $5000, and that is doing them on a budget...it is easy for them to go far higher! And that is just to get them...then there are maintenance costs, and, unfortunately, the possibility of having to protect your patent, which can be the most expensive part of the process, making the initial costs look like pocket change.
This part is not one I see us pursuing, not because it is not good...just does not fit our current set-up. However, if you want some contacts for patents, shoot me an email at
Kevin@DKCustomProducts.com and I'll get you some info.
