Dude the mod bug bit him before he had his car! Haha...

Looks very nice. Turn the timestamp off! It ruins pictures!

Maybe it's just me, but I like the stock GT lip the best. Not that the GT500 looks outta place... but it's too large for rear to my liking.

GT500 styling compliments the GT500 spoiler. A stock GT looks better with the smaller lip IMO. Glad you like it!

Great looking car. And as for mod bug, let me be the first to say.

And so it begins...

I'm not a fan of spoilers, but the GT500 one looks ok. How much down force does it generate? How much drag?

Uses the same 4 holes.
Took lees than two hours to do, I took my time to be careful.

If you decide to put any kind of spoiler on and the car already has a spoiler on it do yourself a faver and make sure you have a heavy duty pair of gloves and plenty of fishing line it will male your life a lot easier getting to spoiler off the car and some GOO Gone to clean up the residue.

Exhaust system this weekend !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It looks nice. Did you have it painted first or does it come in Ford colors?

From Ford, no. But you can buy an aftermarket pre-painted "stick-on" spoiler for a fraction of what a Ford piece costs. I bought a Ford GT500 spoiler, had it painted and installed. The total cost was around $550.00. If you do a generic, pre-painted spoiler, it'll be less than $200.00 if you do the install yourself.

I ordered the Candy Red; I wonder if anyone will do a decent job of matching it, pre-painted or not. I'm assuming that I'd have the "best" results with a body shop painting it.

My folks have a Milan. I ordered an Ebay prepainted stick-on spoiler. The paint matched perfectly and install was peel and stick. It's been 3 years and it's held up in every way...

Looks very nice!!! I was going to order my V-6 without a spoiler but had to for the back-up camera. I'm glad i did now. I think Mustangs were made to have spoilers, just my opinion LOL!!!
