Pedestal Spoiler, Diffuser and Axleback awaits

My wife's new 2011 grabber blue MCA was built this week and should arrive about the 20th give or take. Meanwhile, the first mods (pictured below) await its arrival. Also below is a link to the window sticker, so you can see her equipment.

Pictured is the painted portion of the Pedestal Spoiler (part# AR3Z-634421-CA), Fascia, Lower Rear Diffuser Style, Black (part# AR3Z-17F828-AA) and Magnaflow Street Axleback (part# 15595). And if anyone's curious, the spoiler cost me $289 and $135 to paint, the diffuser cost $129, both purchased locally, and the axleback cost me $450 shipped.

This is what the BEFORE will look like.



The AFTER will look similar to this GT/CS, only in grabber blue.

Almost the same car I was ordering until the dealers finance department started to be a Jackass about it.
But on a side note, my pedestal spoiler is in the basement with the grill surround waiting to be painted and put on the 2010

you will LOVE the spoiler. It's a touch tall and you do notice that in terms of rear vis, but the look is AWESOME

Where did you get your spoiler and was it easy to install?

Where I purchased the spoiler is in my original post above. It took me 4hours to install and I've installed similar spoliers before. The install was not real difficult if you take your time and measure several times before drilling.

Thanks David! I got a great deal on the magnaflows. I believe the seller's web site mistakenly let me have 20% discount on a Sale price. If I recall correctly, I thought you posted before that you paid $699 for your axlebacks. Sorry.

I like how that looks. Thanks for posting pics. It will be a while before my car arrives but I am planning to do some mods. How do you like the exhaust? I see Magnaflow has 4 different kits. How do you like the axle backs? I am not sure if the competition series would be too loud so I am curious if you think the set you have is just right.

How do you like the spoiler? Does it cut into your visibility?

Thanks

The wife and I love the deep sound of these axlebacks. They are "just right" and absolutely no drone. I'm positive that the competion series would be too loud, as they are the straight-through baffled variety, not chambered mufflers like the Street Series.

We absolutely love the pedestal spoiler. We really like how it improves the look of the rear from all angles. And the fact that it has the black underside that coordinates well with the black rear valance and the vinyl blackout between the tail lights on our MCA edition. Yes, it sits high, but not so much that you can't see well enough out your back window.

Awesome thanks for the info. I will go with the street series axle backs. I love Magnaflow. I put Flowmasters on my 2000 GT and hated them. Put Magnaflows on my Mach and talk about great - sound was perfect.

Did you install the mufflers yourself? They look like they can be a do it yourself job.

As for the spoiler I like the pedestal style but I also like the base one too. My car has neither as the Performance Pack here in Canada has no spoiler. I have not decided what to get yet. But looks like I have a couple months before I have to think about it.

Thanks again!

Wes, i'm 58 years old and disabled . I installed my Magnaflow Street Series myself. I backed my Mustang onto ramps to give me extra room, very easy to do. The Magnaflow's sound perfect .

Like David says, installing the axlebacks "are very easy to do". Took me all of 30 mins. If you diecide on getting a "base spoiler" then you could buy mine, which is already factory painted grabber blue. I replaced it with the pedestal spoiler the day we took delivery of my wife's new pony, so it's in perfect condition. You would only need to pickup some 3M double-sided tape, and you could also use the template that came with our pedestal spoiler to locate exactly where the four holes need to be drilled. If interested, make me an offer. I could post some photos of the spoiler if you like.

Glad to know the axle backs can be installed at home. I did the X pipe and the exhaust on my 00 GT and cursed it. When I changed the exhuast on the Mach 1 I just paid a mechanic I knew. The over the axel style are a real pain if you don't have the right tools (which I did not). I was hoping to be able to do them myself since I live in a new town and don't have a mechanic buddy to give me a discount on install.

I am interested in your spoiler. Wonder what shipping would cost?

Thanks David and Steve

I have no idea what shipping would cost. I've never shipped to Canada. May be too much. I'll probably put on Ebay, because I need to sell it.
