I don't think there's anything to stop a team putting a car into a tunnel before homologation. The rules state you can't use a tunnel, but no reference as to what point in the life-cycle of the car.
The Mustang would have had a tonne of CFD done on it, and then verified on track. But we have no idea what Ford Performance in the US did behind closed doors to verify CFD data.
