Trying to decide if I like the GT500 spoiler more than the stock GT spoiler. Anyone who has pics of a GT500 spoiler, I'd love to see them.

 

Very easy conversion, hardest part was removing both tape pads from the decklid. Just take your time remove it....

 

I definitely love mine much more than the stock pedestal GT spoiler. As rts said, it's a very simple conversion. I snagged my GT500 spoiler pre-painted off of eBay.

Brian, love your car, can't beat Performance White! I ordered my spoiler from (my dealership I work for) Ford (OEM service part) and had my Body Shop paint it for me.

 

here we go...

 

and stock...

 

That does looks pretty sleek, especially with the new wheels I got. I think I might have to get one from the spoiler store on eBay as well. Is the old stock GT spoiler worth anything used? Not sure how much of a market there is for those?

 

Decided I'm going to order one next week. What's the best way to get the stock GT spoiler off of the car?

 

Fishing string to cut through the double sided tape between spoiler & trunk. Adhesive remover to get the crap off afterwards.

 

GT500 spoiler all the way! Looks WAY better than stock IMO. Everyone who sees my car tends to agree.

Case in point:

Also, IDK where you're considering buying your spoiler for, but I'd definitely give "the spoiler store" on ebay a big thumbs up. Can't beat the quality for the price.

 

Yeah, that's exactly where I was going to buy it from. I really like how it looks in that bottom picture. It really looks like it extends out like the 2010+ GT500 spoilers. Is there only one specific place to mount it, or is there some flexibility when placing the GT500 spoiler on the decklid? Meaning, can you make it so it extends out farther?

 

Really? That's all it takes is some fishing string to remove it from the decklid?

 

Just take the nuts off of the 4 bolts and use the fishing line to cut though the adhesive. I forget what cleaner I used to remove the rest of the adhesive, but just take your time.

The gt500 spoiler looks great and I haven't regretted the swap in the least.

I went with the OEM Ford piece. It uses the 4 bolt holes like the original. I believe some of the non OEM versions only use 2 of the bolts, which requires you to plug the unused holes.

Here's a picture of mine............

 

I don't think you can make it extend out further because it has a little lip that comes down over the edge of the deck lid just a bit, and it'd look pretty bad if that lip wasn't flush against the deck lid.

 

Ah, ok. Gotcha. Thanks Kevin.

 

Go spolier-less, I think the GT500 is to big and Doesn't flow well and the factory one is to generic

 

While I agree that spoiler-less is a good look, unless you can swap deck lids with someone the price of doing a spoiler delete the right way is substantial compared to the price of an aftermarket spoiler.

Just keep that in mind.

 

I don't like the spoiler delete on the '05-09's unless it's on the Bullitt.

 

Bullitt is same as a CS/GT besides the grill really and the price ain't to much, I still have to weld plug the holes but Im getting it painted for 150

 

I think the GT500 spoiler looks the best
