Debating about getting GT500 rear wing or something else.  Maybe going wingless.  Opinions appreciated.  Here's a bad photoshop of mine without any wing (only have MSPaint so couldn't do it too well):

I like the look of no spoiler personally. But if you were to get one the GT500 would be the way to go. GT500 would also be easier too then getting the holes filled and the trunk resprayed.

I went wingless since I had to have the car painted anyway.  You can't even tell there was a wing there unless you look from the inside.  You need to lower your car and are those 17 inch razors?  If I could do it over again, i'd have also had the 3rd brake light removed.

I like the GT 500 wing. If it had been avail on the GT appearance package, I would have went that way, but I like the stock spoiler as well...... so I am keeping it.

Vista Blue GT LOVE IT! It's bone stock -- except for the shorty 'tenna and the polished billet plug in the power outlet. Keeping it that way too.

Be careful removing safety stuff like that. If you get rear ended it could be an issue.

Like the pics, also liking the GT500 wing.  Think I'm leaning towards that.

The Razors are 18x9 and I am lowered, but only on the rears with the Roush springs.  I don't like it too low.  Yours looks very nice though, good job.

I prefer spoiler delete.  The rear looks so clean!  But the gt500 wing isnt bad.  Anything is better than the stock wing

While you'd have to be a blind retard to not see the brake lights on this car, i'd still have put a 3rd brake light at the top of the rear window where Ford should have put it in the first place. They make kits to do this for the guys with ducktails that don't have brake light holes.

I'd think the guys tinting their brake lights have more to worry about than anyone removing the useless 3rd brake light.

I think part of the reason the spoilerless look looks so good on mossestang's car is that he doesn't have a hood scoop either.  Nice clean lines.  With the hood scoop I'm thinking the GT500 spoiler would probably be a better fit.

In my opinion wingless looks way better than with any spoiler, but i think youy are right it might look bad wingless with the hood scoop.

-Thanks y'all-

... but I do have to agree ... the delete w/out a scoop looks extremely clean.
(guess that means I'm gonna need to decide on a hood soon) ;)

Love the cars moosestang & whtcanbrwnd04u!
