Has anybody installed the GT-500 Spoiler

[RedfireBeast]

Has anybody installed a GT-500 rear spoiler/wing on their Mustang GT? I am not a fan of the stock pedestal wing and have read it is a direct bolt-on to factory holes. Please post a pic if you have done this mod.

Thanks all,

It's a direct bolt-on if you get the OEM piece; if you purchase a GT500 spoiler that is an aftermarket I believe that you don't use all the existing holes and you use some sticky tape. I don't have any pictures but I have seen some and it looks really good.

yes, the link i attached is direct from ford and it looks good in the pic..thanks for input

I think you have a double thread going on here for the same subject. Anyway, I installed one about a month ago on my GT. Not only does it directly bolt to your existing OEM spoiler holes, it uses a industrial strength 3M adhesive to insure security.

I think this spoiler looks the best on the S197's.

Here is the Wing on my GT.

Thanks that looks awesome. Yeah sorry for double post it took a bit for the first one to post up so I thought it did not go through.

The install is very straigtforward. The hardest part is removing the adhesive left by the stock spoiler. Other than that, it bolts right up and uses 3M double sided tape.

The best place to order from is this place. Paint is a perfect match, great customer service is awesome and shipping was quick.

They are OEM calipers painted with Duplicolor red caliper paint. The wheels are True Forged Speed 7's. 19's all around.

You don't fill any holes, you use the 4 OEM mounting holes.

Went to the site and it claims they are only $90.00 is this correct? Ford want's 295.00 for one in primer.

OR go to: Home for your Ford Mustang @ Blue Oval Industries I picked mine up from them for like 205. And it's the actual SVT product...

Their is a difference between the spoilers from ford and the ones from the spoiler store posted above. The ones from ford (the actual shelby part) have 4 screws that line up with the 4 factory holes. The imitations only have 2 that line up. They have an optional 2 but you have to drill

Me too...... I did mine about a year ago

That's true but to me it is not worth another $100 for two more bolts. It is the exact same thing minus that difference.

Once it is mounted on the car you cannot tell the difference between the $95 one and the OEM Shelby piece.

^ for true. I have no problem drilling to holes. and you save a lot more than $100 because you don't have to get it painted

 

[blck04gt]

Just got with the original Ford part! Home for your Ford Mustang @ Blue Oval Industries sells it for 205.00. You can't really beat that price for a Ford spoiler...

You don't even have to drill new holes, it is just that the factory pedestal spoiler leaves four holes and the non-ford spoiler only uses two so you are left with 2 empty holes.
