New rear bumper ready for paint
Well, I could still stick with it, and cut the studs off the caps and just use 3M tape. I just got to thinking maybe something new would be fun.
I'd be interested in hearing other opinions/suggestions regarding the spoiler.

It's been suggested, but I can't seem to deal with the way the side caps sit on top of the quarter panels. Looks very tacked on in that area to my eye (I have a thing for the appearence of smooth flow)
This is the area on the sides I can't wrap my head around:

Then again, it's so popular because it DOES look good...

Basically the only car I've seen with it installed. I'm seeing what you are saying, just not sure how bad it is in real life

The Stalker also uses weird triangular tabs to cover the front factory spoiler holes. Looks a little "off" to me as well.
Well, decided for the time being I'm going to put a GT500 spoiler on. The car definitely needs something back there for visual balance. Got a decent price on the Ford Racing piece.
Provided I don't fall in love with the GT500 spoiler, I have an idea for something customized, but that would take some time to pull together, and a GT500 spoiler shoudn't be tough to sell if I go that route.

I just installed my new GT500 spoiler last night. I bought it pre-painted from caraccessories123 on eBay for $109 shipped. The paint quality is actually quite nice, and the two sided tape is of good quality as well. It mounted up with only 2 bolts. My only complaint is that the paint doesn't match *perfectly*. It's very, very close, but not quite there. At the same time though, neither do my side scoops or door handles for some reason. 

When I installed mine I didn't use those studs, I cut them off and used 3M double side with eurethane. It' easier to perfectly align with the trunk piece and it's rock solid.
Car is supposed to be done Tues/Weds (the shop set is aside most of last week as we had a solid week of rain and they didn't want to spray it with the humidity level pegged).
