The biggest contributors to aerodynamic drag are frontal area and trailing turbulence. I seriously doubt that the parasitic drag from laminar flow disturbance would be of any consequence with an FD, unless you filled the hood, quarter panels and doors with ducts, and were averaging speeds over 150 mph consistently during your driving.
