Installed Torch Red GT500 Spoiler with Pony fender emblems *PICS*
Alright, so decided to take it upon myself to do some body work. Spoiler came from the Ebay Spoiler Store $130 painted and shipped. It took 2 HOURS to cut through the 3M tape on the existing V6 Lip spoiler, that stuff is tough. It didn't help that we only had 12 pound fishing line, and nothing stronger, so it kept snapping. Persistance paid off, and it finally came off. Installing the new spoiler took less than 20 minutes, it was a breeze.
Also installed 2 pony emblems on the side, removed the hideous door guards on the side(which was highly suggested), and removed the dealership sticker on the back. Next week I'll be installed my black racing stripes, and my 18" black rims(hopefully). Pics were taken with my crappy blackberry, sorry. I'll post some Before/After pics.

Damn, I honestly didn't do much research on the location of it, and just picked a spot I thought looked good. My father had a 69' Mustang, and was trying to tell me where to put it, lol.
Does it look bad? If so, I can cut the tape off and adjust it.

Like the spoiler, I have the same one. But the badges definitely need to be located to the stock location. They look quite out of place up there.

Well, I guess when I get some time off of work, I'll adjust the pony emblems. Don't really want too, but if it looks out of place, I probably should. Ithink it looks alright(better than having nothing there, haha), and I'm sure the average person won't even notice. Thanks for the input everyone!

Looks SO much better w/o those door guards.
And yea, I think they're a little high and close to the door but if you're happy with them, keep them there.
