Dang! Must have been easy with the hardware instructions and template. Apparently, someone took all this out of mine, because I only got a spoiler and an empty box.

That last picture shows why I like them. They follow the contours of the taillights and trunk lip nicely. I thought the cutout was a little weird at first, but it matches the license plate/backup lights somewhat. I'm not sure what else they could have done. Just cutting right around the mercury logo woulda looked weird also.

That sucks man. Beleive it or not this guy just made a few pen marks and drilled the holes. Didnt even open the instructions. He's our top bodyman and does some amazing work.

Looks good! :up:

Like the man said, we all started somewhere.

That said, start saving your coins for a supercharger, that mod bug is gonna bite you hard one of these days; ask me how I know... ;)

All said and done...how much did it run you in the wallet? I'm thinking of buying and installing one of those.

coming from a 500HP Cobra, the whole speed mod thing can wait. I know thats a slippery slope!

That's what she said!

Looks sharp, don't know why I've never done the spoiler mod.

thanks guys!

Im not quite sold on the chin spoiler, most of the ones ive seen are wavy and dont seem to fit well. I do think the front needs some sort of valance panel though.
