aerodynamic drag and body style

Stan,

somewhere I saw a chart about body styles and aero drag. [may have been your chart]
that chart showed the 3rd gen Camaro with a relatively low COD and the 3rd gen Firebird among the lowest.

I have even considered installing a 3rd gen Firebird ft fenders and facia on my Camaro. Would doing that be worth the effort plus finding a Firebird ft and painting it?

Is the frontal drag the most critical? With rear drag less of an issue?
