Gurney rear spoiler?

Just a quick question here, is there a difference between the non-SVT PP spoiler and the PP rear spoiler?

Yes.
On the non SVT spoiler, the black plastic strip is flat on top. On the SVT PP package, the spoiler's plastic strip has a " Gurney Flap ", a raised lip @ the edge, maybe 1/8".

That information is incorrect. All 2010+ GT500's have the same black Gurney flap. I'll post a pic of the one on my 2010 if you need more proof.

Check out the pic I posted in my reply. Every 2010+ GT500 I've seen has the same flap. Show me otherwise.

Strange that my 2010 GT500 has the same flap as the 2011+ SVTPP cars. Come to think of it the 2011+ GT500's I've seen have been SVTPP cars. I guess you guys with 2011+ non-SVTPP cars get less goodies than us iron block 2010 guys.
I think when I did my original comparison it was comparing my 2010 to a 2011 SVTPP car and they both have the same flap. Therefore I incorrectly assumed that they all had the same flap. You learn something new every day.

That lip will be just enough to give my old 2010 the areo advantage over a 2012 ZL1. Lol

I remember reading a long time ago (maybe before the '10 was released) that they were going to be adjustable... they aren't and I'm ok with it but does anyone else remember reading that?
