I want to change my stock spoiler on my Candy GT. What do you guys suggest? Any pics? What is the best place you can by a painted one?

 

I just went through this also. I wanted to install the Roush spoiler but read where the Sirius antenna needed to be trimmed or the spoiler would rub it. I decided to go with a factory GT500 spoiler. There are much cheaper Gt500 spoilers on EBAY but I didn't like how they didn't use all 4 factory holes. I'm getting it painted next week and I will post pics when done.

 

GT500 spoiler

 

For around $229 you can get a flat black PJ Saleen spoiler(e-bay) ready to mount.It looks stock but more old school.

 

Roush

 

ROUSH! BTW, it fits snug to the sat radio antenna. No mod needed.

 

If you are looking for old skool, here you go...Cervini B2...

It does cover factory spoiler holes btw...

 

I went with the Ford Shelby style and couldn't be happier. The quality was good, it uses all four factory mounts, and from what I've read, some of the copies are not as stiff internally. I just had a local shop paint and install mine.

 

that roush piece is nice looking

 

I have also read several places that the non-OEM GT500 ones have a tendancy to start warping over time given the reduced number of mounting bolts. When I do upgrade, I am sticking with OEM quality... you get what you pay for.

 

mine is OEM GT500.

JMO, as I've learned so many times in the past, the deal you think you're getting in the beginning ends up costing you more in the long run..

 

I have heard the same thing but due to the lack of internal stiffening. The Ford product supposedly has a piece of metal that ties in the four bolts and runs the length of the spoiler thereby keeping it from warping. I've heard some of the knock offs are hollow inside and therefore don't hold their shape as well. Given the price between the Ford product and the copies isn't far off, OEM is preferable in my opinion.

 

I get mine back tommorow and I'll post pics this weekend.

 

what did it cost you for the prep/paint for the spoiler?

 

Just under $170 including tax. I got it back today and it looks great. I am very happy I replaced the stock spoiler.

 

any one want to seel their stocker cheap..... I looking for one for a silly little project I'm working on

 

I think NO spoiler looks best. But if you want one the Roush looks real nice..

 

Where can you buy the OEM GT 500 spoiler painted at a good price?

 

Steeda has a great sale on their rear wing only $75

 

I wanted a ducktail so I went with CDC's but it covers the 3rd brake light so I had to add a new one as well as from CDC. You can also buy it prepainted.

I don't know if you're worried about the stock holes either.
Street scenes has a 2 choices that use the stock holes.
