Gt500 style stripes or spoiler?

I everyone I have a 2013 Pony package Black mustang and was wondering which you thought would be better?

Gt500 spoiler or Gt500 style stripes

I have a a show coming up and I just wanted to get some input on this.

Also, I want to put something other than "gt500" on my car, any ideas? I was going to put Banshee but it wont fit most likely. Maybe G.T.350H?

I would go with the spoiler. Check the spoiler store on eBay, you can get them really cheap. Just bought one for my '07 for $119.

I'm a stripe fan. A reputable vinyl graphics shop can make whatever you want and change the text font/size to fit the space. Do as I did. Pick a theme and uniquely modify your pony's appearance!

I bought the GT500 pre-painted spoiler from AM and i couldnt be happier with it. The worst part of the whole process was removing the OEM spoiler. Looks great too.

spoiler first since you will have to stripe the spoiler anyways if you added it after the stripes

Regardless, you probably shouldn't badge your car as something it's not.
You will catch a lot of flack on forums for it. And especially at shows...people who are true enthusiasts frown upon it.....


^^^^agree. Spoiler before stripes!

I would not consider a few body parts and stripes as rebadging. now if emblems and call out stripes were added I would consider that rebadging.
although I am personally against rebadging if someone wants to rebadge it is there car and good luck to him. It just reminds me of a kid that was living with me once. If you want to have blue hair that is fine, Just don't come crying to me if people treat you different.

Strang wisdom on that last one. Anyone got a good place for the spoiler? And I am getting the stripes all done and installed for 400 so I dunno, if I did go that path I'd get grabber blue or white

^ I actually REALLY like that. It is way out of the normal scope of what black cars go with.

"GT350H"


To OP, if you are ever planning on the spoiler, get it first. You don't want to have to pay double for stripes. Get the spoiler, then when you get the money together, run the stripes.
Then you get everything you want.

3.7 over that, that v6 emblem looks like it could be purchased at Wally World in the automotive section.
