Default Spoiler Delete

Ok after being around my friends Shelby GT im starting to like the spoiler delete.Im still having problems deciding so i thought i would ask what everyone here thinks. I know this is kind of like everyone asking what rims should i get, and i know it isALL up toME and MY WALLET. But isit a gooddeal to have the dealership body shop do it for$400, or have it done by a custom body shop?? (aka cheaper)

Anyways.....All Suggestions And CommentsAre Appreciated.....

Thanks,
Mike

The $400 is for taking off the spoiler, patching the holes, the prep work, and then painting the trunk lid..

well find a sixxer in your area that wants a spoiler and is your color, and switch it then


better than paying $400

the shelby has that ducktail thing happening. Just a delete looks too plain to me. I would say leave it alone .

I've been looking for going on three months now with no luck yet. I'm running ads on Craigslist and in various forums. It's harder than it would seem.

Anybody want an Alloy Metallic trunk lid with a GT spoiler? I'd love your spoiler delete in return. I'm willing to drive up to 500 miles to meet you, I'll bring the tools and do all the work. Ya can't beat that!

In the mean time I have my "homegrown spoiler delete" mod - $1.35 in plastic plugs.

i really like the spoiler delete cars...i don't mind mine cuz it's the gt-type, but to me, it's not worth all the hassle and money to switch, especially with MG....alloy is pry just as hard to find anyway...idk...i wonder if you could get a tunk lid and have it painted to match - maybe that'd be cheaper???

im still trying to get used to my spoiler delete on my SGT, ive been tempted more than once to drill a GT500 spoiler in, but then i got to have the stripes on it to match and it seems like a PITA at the moment
