It says on the linked page that it's a bolt on, but I've seen where that often means filling old holes or drilling new ones - so I'm curious to know for sure if it's a true "bolt on."

These come pre-painted, so I'm wondering if the white on the KB cars Performance white.

If these can be bought fully painted and installed DIY, it seems like a pretty good deal.

 

Not my cup of tea.

 

I thought that was a knockoff of the LS wing.

 

It is. For a few bucks more get the OEM LS wing and have it painted.

 

I was told by someone more experienced than me that this wind does require drilling and also has misalignment issues as well.

The ford OEM piece comes with a template for drilling too.

 

who make sit OP? if its 3DCarbon their stuff is top notch. i think the GT500 spoiler works well on these cars too. it looks like that one might no need drilling or holes to fill.



Edit: that company makes nice stuff, i see its DG Customs, they buy 3DCarbon typically and paint it in house.

 

If that's the same one Scott has I don't think he'd recommend it. The GT500 uses the existing four holes from the stock spoiler while the LS wing uses the stock four holes plus you have to drill four more holes. While not an easy install it's not that difficult either. The LS wing has slightly more downforce than the GT500 spoiler.

The trick to removing the stock spoiler is to use some heavy nylon string to cut the existing adhesive. I used the string that Home Depot uses every year to tie your Christmas tree to your car and it cut the adhesive like butter. Be sure to tape the decklid around the stock spoiler to protect the paint when using the string.

 

I recommend sticking with the OEM pedestal, from experince. I've installed a 3DCarbon GT500 spoiler in the past, only to have to replace later with a newer version, and the newer one didn't keep its shape for long either.

Below is the OEM version on my Boss.

 

Isnt that the standard CS wing on all models?

that is mine, came with car.

 

correction, the LS is a knock off of this.. boss came out after the CS Mustang for 2011

Unless you are refering to the original boss.

 

Yes it is. The Boss LS wing and front valance that come standard on the CS were designed for the Boss program from the beginning and were used on the CS to spread the tooling costs. Ever notice how the Boss street splitter fits perfectly on the valance? That was no accident.

 

the splitter yes, i knew that, but i was refering to the rear spoiler wing. but it makes since, keeps the cost down!

 

All three pieces were designed for the Boss program. A Ford engineer who worked on the Boss program told me that in person.

 

cool, good lil fact to know..

to OP, thats what it looks like on a Performance White car

 

I would like to get one like that for my 06 that is if it would fit

 

A bit of history....even the original '68 CS was assembled with parts intended for the Shelby's.

 

Thanks for all the replies guys, I knew this was the place to ask. Not sure that I want a CS wing.

Hey Rick, are there any other "plug and play" wings that you know of other than the GT500?

Also, in the event I get it painted white, is the white on our Konas "Performance White?"

 

Another vote for getting the OEM GTCS/LS one if you want one.

 

That is not the wing I bought. I am not going to slam a product I know nothing about but for a few dollars more I would buy the Ford OEM wing if I had to do things over. My wing is the LS style and works fine but the mounting was harder then it would have been with the OEM wing.

 

Yes there's the RTR spoiler that looks pretty slick. I have no idea of it's downforce abilities though. The GT500 is probably the best solution without drilling holes but again I'd go OEM or this one.

Mount the CF one and paint the Gurney flap white.

The white is the PW used on all the Mustangs for 2012.
