Default Roush vs GT500 Rear Valance?

Alright, I am at this cross-roads right now...

ROUSH Rear Valance

or

GT500 Rear Valance

I am going to order the RTR front chin/splitter and roush side splitters this week and I am tossing which rear valance to put with it. Which one do you guys think goes with the RTR front and roush sides the best? I am thinking the roush but I am not sure....

Also, Where is the best/cheapest place to get either part from? Latemodelresto has the roush for $175 but I am sure there are better prices out there...

(sorry, don't know how to do a poll or I would)

you could do the RTR rear with the splitters. its a gt500 with some added bits. I did the roush and now wish I wouls have gone with it instead.

No, I am not wanting to spend the $500+ on a rear valance when the Roush is $175+/- and the GT500 is $150+/-

The Roush if your getting the square tips to properly fit the opening. Otherwise the GT500 if the tips are round. The square opening of the Roush just looks odd with round tips. I am not sure if the Roush square tips are available for the 2010. I know they are for the 2011+

IMO I don't like putting any GT500 ground effects on a non-Shelby 'Stang. I run the Roush. Here's how it looks

Tips are tips and you can make them fit on any model year. It just depends on what you're looking for. Here is my Roush rear. The GT500 one is nice too, but my pick was the Roush. I also like the Roush rear spoiler also, so decided to go with both:
