On the new aiplanes, there are HUGE fillets fore and aft of the wing. This

Wheel pants, gap seals, ....and HUGE new fiberglass fillets (fore and aft).
Are they part of everyday speed-mod packages?

If so, what is the "anecdotal" gain, after installing (just) them?

I've read reports on wheel pants, on gap seals, and on Power Flow exhaust
systems, but not on aftermarket fillets for the GA fleet.

Knots2U sells a wing/fuselage fairing.

I have it on my Cherokee, but cannot discern the exact performance
gain as it was added in conjunction with a number of other mods.
