The stock spoiler wouldn't be my first choice, but I do like spoilers. I'm planning on ordering my GT with the spoiler, then taking advantage of the factory holes to swap it out for the GT500 spoiler.

From reading many many threads on this site since the 05's, were out, I know I'm in the minority but I like the stock spoiler.

Sorry....

but I like the stock spoiler. Some people claim that they feel that the car looks "stealthy" without the spolier. To me the car looks aggresive with the spolier.

JMHO.

That's why the spoiler-delete option is so great - have it your way. It's like Burger King, for cars...

I like the spoiler, without the spoiler the car looks too much like the v6 instead of the GT. Just my opinion.

I have the stock spoiler on my V6, does this mean my car looks like the GT?

To quote a great man (guy from VA Beach named Mark),

Spoiler delete to me is like cowbell. I gotta have that spoiler delete baby!

I agree.
It also saves me a few useless pounds and air drag.

Of course, I keep hearing how good it looks without one.

I'm with ya James. I ordered spoiler delete so I could add a ducktail. I almost didn't order the ducktail, 'cause I liked it spoilerless so much. To me, the stock spoiler would be right at home on an Accord or Escort. It's just too generic. JMO

Hey Rusty, just saw your sig. I figured that show would end up being stupid, but I really got hooked on it. Well written stuff.

I agree that it looks more aggressive with the stock or GT500 spoiler, and that is definitely what I like. Either way, you have a nice car there!

Thanx for all the responses guys, I just wanted to let you know how it looks w/o a spoiler and IMO it looks much better.

I really dig the more refined european look to the car this way, the spoiler looks tacky IMO and doesn't flow with the lines very well, but if there was such thing as very small decklid spoiler I would go for it.

Also what do you guys think of the rims?

Thanx

Are the rims 20's?
