Default Ducktail vs. GT500

What do you guys think between the two. I have the GT spoiler and was looking for a different look. I had originally wanted the GT500 spoiler but I got to looking and started to like the high rise that the MMD ducktail has. I don't really care for the three piece design that the CVX and Roush have. If you have pics of both put them up. Thanks!

Both are really good looking spoilers. I was actually a little hesitant on the MMD duck tail when it first came out, but since I've seen it installed in person, it has grown on me. I definitely feel it's a better spoiler for Mustangs that have an overall more aggressive appearance. Where the GT500 spoiler has that factory sport car look and isn't as radical.

Both a great options for difference reasons. I posted a few customer submitted pictures below for you to check out if you like!

Both look very simular. I would see which is the best buy. The Spoiler Store on eBay used to sell GT500 spoilers for $100.00. I have thought about getting one but I have grown to like mine now.

The Ducktails seems a little big to me, but I like the way it connects to the decklild better. If you've got a stock front end, I'd go with the less aggressive GT500. If you plan on doing mods to the front end, I'd go with the Ducktail to balance front to back.

Went ahead and got the ducktail and after seeing those pics above I'm glad I did! Ordered springs too so it should look sweet. Thanks guys!

I have the 3 piece Street Scene, which is a true Ducktail.
Problem with those is that it won't cover the the holes left by the factory spoiler if you car came with it...
Cervini makes one that goes over said holes but that spoiler is too tall and you can't see schit out of your rear view mirror.

I thought I saw them on eBay today. Maybe it is a different seller, but they can still be had for $100 or so painted.
