Default Why spoiler delete?

never seen an option like this, is it just for the convience of not having to take one off if your going aftermarket?

Also if u do get it, what happens ot the holes in the car that would be used on the stock spoiler?

If you get the spoiler delete their are no holes in the trunk, so if you were going to replace it anyway.

depends on which spoiler you buy. some are designed to fit the original holes, others come with delete kits (ie CDC) that wouldn't be needed, and others are designed to simply tape over the existing holes (if they are there) (ie 3d Carbon). I personally am a fan of the 3d Carbon model:

Hmm, so i have to determine which one i like first, hmm, that could be a challenge itself.

Thanks a lot for the input!

try http://www.fordmustangstore.com/Shop...eIndexID=49651. Looks almost identical to the T-Rex grilles, but considerably less expensive. Generally people ask me if mine is a T-Rex.

I had to pay $200 to cover and paint the trunk holes when I went with a Ducktail spoiler.

In awnser to the thread topic, because people don't like the spoiler.

But seriously, you can actualey save money with it this way. I didn't order mine, if I had I would have got the spoiler, but they had one near by that was exactley what I want, sans the spioiler. So i got that one and I'll just buy a spoiler seperate. Here's the funny part, getting the spoiler from a junk yard or ebay, is actualy cheaper then the factory option.
