I like the looks of the Steeda wing and if you want your Boss to look correct to the race cars that's it. I'd of course get the CF winglets. How much do trunk lids cost anyway?

I'd run it all the time.

You should. You'll have four extra holes to deal with or buy a new trunk lid.

More holes means I'll be lighter

I have a friend who owns a body shop, might be a that price but painted.

Love that 302S hood. Can't wait for that to be available

I plan on it.
I was a little busy today, but first thing tomorrow. I'll even leave a deposit. Thanks again for the link

I hadn't considered making the Gurney Flap white - I like it in black but an interesting idea for sure

Go buy a roll of white electrical tape and check it out for me. I'll reimburse you. Be sure and take a photo.

I think it is this one instead:

If you look at pictures of the race cars, you will see that they look closer to the "functional street wing." See how they are mounted? I think that is what they are using on the 302R.

The airfoil itself is probably the same.

Well that's the link I thought I posted. Better check that order Jason. The photo of the Roush car I posted uses the same wing as the photo you posted and is the one I was referring to. I sent Jason a PM.

I have had the Tiger Racing hood on order for my 2010 for months. Unfortunately the demand from Ford Motorsports take precedence over us. I'll just have to wait as nobody makes a true vented hood. The deep draw hood from Shelby would be nice but they are too stupid to sell parts.

Here's the spoiler I'm planning on installing. TruCarbon GT500. Please ignore my crappy PS work removing the white stripe.

Dammit, guys.
Now I want that.

Since they will be removing my stock spoiler to paint it matte black next month, I was thinking since they have to remove it, might as well take the opportunity to upgrade.

Is the 3DCarbon version basically the same thing?

The 3D is basically the same but the Gurney Flap is built in and painted black. Personally I'd spend the extra money and go OEM.
