The Ducktail really compliments the '05-'09 rear nicely (ala Pascal's ride.)

That said, as someone else mentioned -- since it's an appearance mod -- you really need to go with what you like, the herd be damned!

The owner (or installer) before you was simply a MORON.
These spoilers mount with 3M tape only!!!!!!! So no drilling freaking holes!

I'm sorry you're stuck with all these holes man...

Mooooooooooooooo...LOL
My second choice was for the ductail, I do like how it looks from the back, especially when its striped. But yeah look at all the pics and stuff but you get what you like

Excuse me while I go find a towel to wipe the drool from my mouth.
First time I've seen full images of Pascal's mustang too. Looks really great.

I think the ducktail definitely gives it a good boost of character.

Does anyone have actual data on the aero on the GT Wing vs. Gt 500 Spoiler, vs. anything else?
roush spoilers are functional

i didnt notice the CDC block the third light, is that legal???

Minority opinion here but I like the way it looks now.

Thanks for the help everyone. Like I said, I've decided to wait it out instead, and go ahead and take care of the mods that I am 100% certain I want to do like the SHR louvers and Agent 47 mirrors, and then decide what best fits the look of the car from there.

Thanks again.
