cobra spoiler??
ok i have a 04 gt.. and im wanting a 03-04 cobra spoiler... anyone know if a factory one will fit and cover up holes? or if they make a kit for it.. thanks for any help i get..
Hey Bro... Unfortunantly there is no special kit. Unless you buy a04 cobratrunk lid to go with it.I bought an 04 cobra spoiler off of ebay for like350 it wasused. PlusI had to get it painted to match my car cause it came out of a silver cobra. If youdo get oneyou will have to drill 3 extra holes to your trunk lid. Aslo you have to remove the 3rd brake light that sits on the trunk lid. To accomidate the new wiring.You also have to cut into the electrical wiring to hook up the new L.E.D lights from the cobra spoiler. I went to ford & bought some touch up paint to fill the frontward holes. It came out okay just give it a really good buff after it dries. I looked into getting the holes covered upat the shop where i got the spoiler painted. The guytold that he would have to take the trunk lid off & sand it down, then use body filler to cover up the holes. Then paint the trunk lid again. Thats the pricey way. That would of cost me an extra $300.00 Im gonna get it done sooner or later but I didnt have the $$$$. Here are some pics of the trunk once I installed it
Sorry here are a couple pics click on them to make them bigger...

over $300 for the spoiler? plus $300 to get the holes fixed = headers, or cai + t/b pulenium, or x pipe....there is a lot of better things you could spend your money on as opposed to something stupid like a different spoiler

If you are ever going to do more power mods or suspension mods,I would do them before buying a very hard to find and VERY expensive spoiler. HOWEVER, It is your money and if your car has all the power and handling you want, no one can realy tellyou that it's a "stupid" purchase.
But, keep in mind the cost of everything, not just the price you might find the spoiler for. In most cases you are going to be paying $300+ for that spoiler. You also have to consider that if it comes with a deck lid, you will be paying for that. Plus paint if the lid and spoiler aren't your exact color. Also, if it doesn't come with a spoiler, on top of paying for the spoiler, paying to paint it, and panting the lid, you are filling holes. And I would expect to pay $500+ for a good and reputable body shop to do the work. And if you ask a body shop about filling those holes and you don't hear the word "Welding" at all when they check it out, leave.
