New chin spoiler options from Cervini's...cool or tacky?

I just can't get a sense from these pictures if I like these spoilers or not... does anyone have any feedback on these?

I'm not the chin spoiler type, really. That being said, I'd go with Type IV. It just blends better, to me. Therefore it doesn't jump up & kick me in my plums.

I really liked their Stalker kit for the SN95 cars, but they've missed the mark on all of their S197 products. I'll stick with the CDC lip if I was going the throwback route.

The First one is too big in my opinion......the horizontal cuts in teh middle of the Type IV is ugly.

The Type II has been my choice, so much so I am torn between that one and the GT/CS that has been done so much. https://themustangsource.com/f802/cs...erdone-500955/

First off, I think most of Cervini's stuff is tacky/trash/rice. #1 is complete crap. #2 is ok. #3 is "meh..." As far as chin spoilers go, I'd stick with CDC.

Good input so far, guys... I too tend to find their stuff a bit on the "Pep Boys" side... but I have to admit that I like the first one (though it's a bit too big as noted) and the Type 2 is a bit more tasteful but I'm not sure I like how it "blends" (or doesn't) into the wheel arch.

I had a CDC spoiler on my 2009 GT and I loved it from the minute I put it on until the day I sold it... but the CDC chin spoiler for the 2010+ cars looks too "blocky" to my eye.

Though I have to admit that it looks pretty slick here...it still seems to go up too high onto the fascia...or something?

I'm not real excited about pulling the bumper cover off of my car, to install the CS valance. How say would it be to screw it up?

^^^This! There is no better look to me.. And I wish I had it for my 08!

I thought about an old school 69/70 style chin spoiler designed for the 05-09 but it seems to look overwhelming with the proportions of the newer cars and actually looks too ricey to me.

Pulling the bumper cover off is so so easy. It's really not that many fasteners. Just make sure you lay a large blanket or something under the bumper and around the ground area you are working so that you do not scratch it when you lift it off and set it down.

I'm sure it's not as hard as you're thinking it's gonna be. The 05-09's were really simple to pull off. I'm sure '10+ is just as easy.
