Pics of a GT with the newer V6 spoiler?

Does anyone have pictures of a GT with the newer style, semi-flat V6 spoiler? I think it would be a really good look, a little more subtle even than the GT500 spoiler, but I can't seem to find any pictures of that combo...

Thanks for the link.

Anyone have any other pictures to contribute? I think it looks really good but it's a little hard to to tell with the stripe and also the blacked out bottom of the bumper... anything a little more stock out there?

Just take a look at your local dealership at the V6 mustangs they have with the spoiler, aside from the extra exhaust exit the GT and V6 look pretty much the same in the rear.

Cool Member V-6 Spoiler Pictures

Take a look at these V-6 spoiler shots on a very nice GT/CS, from a fellow TMS member! Great and different look working here! Enjoy! And good luck on this. CalStang

Check out the GT500 KR too - it is running that spoiler and wind tunnel testing by SVT showed the benefit to helping keep the backend planted at speed (which is why they went with it)

SVT also found that it had less drag than the standard GT500 spoiler...

Cool Good enough for a GT-500 KR!

Just thought of something else on this V-6 spoiler. Need to have some V-6 spoiler folks report in on this. On our GT/CS with it's original GT spoiler, it is almost impossible to keep the rearend body areas clean back there! Even after a short cruise, there is always some dirt, road tar and or road crud stuck on back there! Wondering if the V-6 spoiler aero shape may be a somewhat better in keeping this stuff from getting on there? Can anyone with a V-6 unit, ring in with a possible answer on this dirt issue? If it's indeed better, just may have to pop for one. And we think they are pretty cool looking too. Plus the ricers might just believe that they are coming up on you in your little V-6 Stang, as they think they are going to about put you away. Hah! Now that would be a very fun kill!! We used to call this "The Seeper Effect", back in the day. CalStang

Nope it's no better. My V6 is black and I live on a dirt road. i'll wash my car before I get home and after driving down my dirt road the entire *** end of my Mustang is covered in dust. The rest of my car will be clean but the rear end is filthy.

O.K. ...the stripe is gone but the V-6 spoiler still remains(I traded out the striped deck lid and hood,it came off a Pony car,-check out that tri-bar )
I do drive it on the street only but I get more brake dust than dust effect from the spoiler.

I really like the look of it. And that's interesting about the GT500KR... I had heard that rumor, but they ended up going with that spoiler for the final product, eh?

Does the V6 spoiler use the same mounting holes as the standard GT?

Yes - exactly the same (keeps costs down at the factory).

Sleeper Effect? You must have been referring to my wolf in sheep's clothing. 440 horsepower hidden inside a plain wrapper (GT with rear spoiler delete, V6 pony grille/fogs, V6 pony fender emblems, etc.). Can't tell you how many times Mustang "experts" have thought my car was a V6 at first glance. Click on the slideshow below for more pics...

Cool Sleeper Effect Indeed!

50B: Now thats what I'm talkin about! Way cool fun! Thanks for sharing your "Sleeper" again with the TMS Gang! Hah! Does your face hurt from all of that smiling pain. After sending all the little people home with your dust in their mouths? Pony On!! CalStang

P.S. Thanks for all your responses on the question about the nice looking V-6 Spoiler and getting dirty ! Was hoping for better reports on that one. CS
