Default Does GT500 rear spoiler use the same holes?

Wondering if the GT500 spoiler uses the same holes as the GT spoiler.

The one I just received from the Spoiler Store on Ebay has an additional two holes that are inboard of the two (which utilize existing holes). Using those two additional holes would require drilling into the trunk lid. Do you really need those additional holes or will the spoiler mount ok using just two bolts and the 3m tape?

You only need the two holes, and tape. Mine has been on for over a year, and is very secure.

Do yourselves a favor and get the oem factory spoiler. It will be a 100 dollars more but IMO it was worth it. Perfect fit, as perfect as it gets with Ford. You'll use all 4 holes and plenty of tape. You will need all th reinforcement as these spoilers have been knwn to lift in some areas not held down well.

Actually $100 more plus the cost of prep and painting..... At $130, painted and delivered, I think I'll take a chance on the aftermarket spoiler. But thank you for the advice.

They come paint to match from ford, no need for prep and paint cause its already painted!

Another question. If I get a GT spoiler to replace my 07 V6 lip spoiler, will it fit okay?

How is the quality of the paint match?

I bought mine painted and ready to mount for 150 with shipping to Puerto Rico included and it fitted perfect. Had no problems.
