Very nice and clean looking car.

 

i saw a bunch of pics on nym, wish i could've gone..

 

There's a cruise coming up on 9/9 for a wounded warriors fundraiser car show. Try to make it.

 

I'm hoping I dont really like my original CS spoiler better...lol

And i haven't convinced myself that I love the Roush louvers either. Been trying to get them to grow on me. Although I haven't really looked the car over all that much.

 

Anthony, how's the spoiler coming? You will love the gt500 spoiler. The big difference over the cs spoiler is there is no gap between the trunk and the spoiler base. In the cs you can see the mounting stems, and gaps between each stem, if you will. But again, it's all personal preference.
As for the louvers, not sure on that. I am not a fan of any louvers.... But again, it is personal preference.

 

Yeah that was my main reason for wanting to switch spoilers, no being able to see under it lol. It's installed now. I love it but its not as high as the CS so it's a little more subtle.

I'm thinking of wrapping the gurney flap in CF Vinyl since they never painted it flat black. It's gloss like the rest of the spoiler. Also maybe CF vinyl decklid? Just not sure if the CF will look tacky...

 

is that the one by Montgomery?

 

Yes...that's what I love about the gt 500 spoiler. It's a little more loud than the stock lip spoiler, but not as loud and obnoxious as the higher wing spoilers. The Goldilocks of spoilers, if you will. Again, it's all about preference, no wrong or right.

However, as far as the gurney flap is concerned, I researched this like you, extensively. If you have one of the painted ones, then it's definitely a replica, and more than likely an American muscle brand replica. I definitely wanted the black gurney flap. But yes, painting or wrapping it black is the way to go. Matte black

 

Yes sir

 

It's an OEM spoiler. I got It for 220 from my local discount ford dealer.

You say matte black instead of CF for the deck lid and gurney?

 

Ahhhhh so you bought an unpainted spoiler from ford, but they painted all of the spoiler one color? Hmmm one would think the dealer would know that stock Shelby spoilers come with matte black flaps.

But yes I would go matte black...but up to you bro.

 

A local body shop big into mustangs did the painting, not ford. It was a miscommunication with me originally wanting the deck-lid painted flat black. Then the next morning I called and said paint it all gloss as I decided to do a vinyl overlay. Guess they took that as do everything gloss. I'm sure if I go back hed redo it for me

 

that sucks they painted the whole spoiler .. the matte part is textured

 

Not that big a deal. You can always tape it and then paint it flat black yourself. you probly won't even notice after a week anyway

 

So the gurney flap was meant to be left alone and not painted???

 

Thanks for sharing. Beautiful ride.

 

Thanks brother.

New pics coming soon

 

Get some tape, tape the flap off and use some plasti dip....I plan on getting my wing from AM just so I can always have to option to strip the plasti dip off and have a all black wing.

 

Car looks great. I'd personally of gone with the Boss brake cooling duct kit instead of the fogs. How are the Falkens treating you? I've never been a big fan of their tires.

Looking forward to more pictures.

 

Thanks man! Are you back home now?? Glad to see you back on.

As far as the fogs, the car is a CS so that was already done from the factory.

And for the tires...Honestly, I wouldn't know a real good street tire if it was wrapped around me lol. The Falkens look sick and handle nice but as far as traction I don't know. If I smash first they spin like mad I can tell you that lol. But probably would 95% of other tires. After a quick burnout they seem to hook much better tho.....
