Xenon vs. CDC vs. 3dCarbon

I am planning on replacing the stock rear spoiler on my 05 GT. I want to replace it with a "duck tail" type spoiler and would like to get some feedback from those that have any of the ones that I mentioned in the title.

I know that unless I plan on filling in the stock holes that the CDC is out of the picture. Anyone have or heard of any problems with either the Xenon one or the 3dCarbon ones?

Thanks in advance for responses.

Those were my top three choices too. I felt like the Xenon piece was too big and I didn't like the way the CDC piece didn't sit flush with the taillights. I went with the 3dCarbon GT Ducktail spoiler and still think it was the best choice.

Yep, I went with the 3DCarbon GT500 and yes, they do quality stuff. I got mine through Atlantamustang prepainted and it came in perfect.

Yep I'm bumping this thread back up.

Does anyone have photos from the front looking over the trunk lid at the Xenon ductail spoiler? There are several threads that come up in searches but they all appear to be before the servers dumped all the photos.

Second question for TMSBrad or others: How much different dimension wise is the 3D Carbon ducktail from the factory GT 500 spoiler?

I'm leaning towards a '68 or '69 look and I have the factory spoiler. My original intent was to put the factory GT 500 spoiler on utilizing my existing holes. The GT 500 spoiler extends way beyond the rear of the trunk and I'm having second thoughts about it.

planned mods are: TruFiber GTS-2 hood, GT/CS side scoops, Agent 47 mirrors, brake ducting and lower front grille, SHR lower grill inserts, CDC lightbar, and a different rear spoiler. To eventually be followed upon warrantee expiration with a Saleen SC. I am awaiting delivery of WebElectric sequentials, one touch top and one touch rear window modules.

TIA
