Thanks for the compliment . Waxing around the spoiler was kind of a pain. I planned on a ducktail spoiler sometime in the future but it looks so clean without. Undecided now.

I too love the look of your ride. Any chance of getting another pic or two looking from the 3/4s rear?
Thanks, Joe

That's it, that's the look! Thanks for the shot, it's gorgeous!!! Now, according to two local bodyshops, it will cost me $500-$600 to plug the holes and repaint as necessary the rear of the car to match the Redfire paint.
The last shop owner thinks I should keep the rear spoiler, and ditch the front hood scoop. I'm now thinking he maybe right.
I know this is all personal opinions, but I'm beginning to think it would be better to stop the mods now, and wait for the 2009 model to start over. So, now what?
Please share your thoughts, Joe

If you change the hood and want to go with a stock hood get a take-off hood. It will probably save you some cash on a repaint.

If i could have gotten a spoiler delete I would have done it but I was limited to what the dealer had. I originally decided on vista blue and found one without the spoiler but once I saw a black stang I had to go black.

I'd get the GT500 spoiler! I hated the stock one, and to me the delete looks "naked". The GT500 spoiler gets compliments from other 'Stang owners and looks good!!

In my own humble opinion of course.
