moved the stock wing back three inches
 

last weekend i moved my stock 99 gt wing back about 2 3/4 inches. it give the car an awsome new look and was really simple to do. anyone want to do it or has done it? -nik-

put some pics up.

Pics or Shens

When I got my 00 GT it had this done to it as well. It looks a lot better

*grabs his broom*

sounds pretty cool
 

sounds pretty cool, i was thinkin about raising mine an inch or two if possible i havent really looked into it, otherwise i i guess il just let it be

01+ wing > 99-00 wing

.... that is all

01+ Wing + Flat Black > 99-00 color matched to car wing...

ok..now im lost........


dayum its 4:44am?? sleepy time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are sadley mistaken my friend :D

Dead weight
 

The stock "wings" on our cars (mine is 02 gt convt.) are just dead weight. If you want one that works look at the 00 R types, or the big wings the drag racers use. All ours do is mess up the rear view and provide a gigantic handle to open the trunk lid with.

If I get the chance I'll remove mine and go clean (bullitize), or consider the new salleen version that extends back off of the trunk lid. I've noticed that my buddy's car that has this doesn't accumulate as much crud on top of the rear bumper as my car... Guess that makes it "functional"...

Pics?? been waitin

I agree. I bought my 02 Gt with the wing on the rear. The more i see my friends bullitts without the wing, the more i want mine gone. The first chance i get to get a black trunk lid for a nice price the wing is gone.

Here are pics that I took this AM with my sidekick (cell phone) so they aren't that good, but you can get an idea of what it looks like.

Another pic of the top

Here is a pic of the inside of the trunk. This way you can see the other holes.

I definately want to change the spoiler on my 02, I just haven't found the right one yet. I definately think spoilers gives something to the look of a Mustang. Not that the Bullits aren't nice, but that is just for the Bullits if you ask me. Anyother Mustang without a spoiler looks "naked". That's just my 2 cents though!

Correction...00+ Roush wing > 01+ wing > 99-00 wing :toothy5:

Is it Crooked?
 

My 02's wing is different (the 00 in the pic looks like the 03 6cyl. style to me), in that it doesn't mount at the outer edges, cut has a seperate perch on each side.

Also, and I hope I'm wrong, but it looks to be cocked to one side a bit - note the fit at the back edge with the trunk lid.

Still think the Saleen (smaller version - they have 2, one which is much larger) is one of the best looking wings for our cars, but perhaps less is more - a la no wing at all.

99/00 spoiler moved back >>>>>> any other stock wing (besides maybe the 03/04 cobra)

And with it moved back it is actually a bit functional.
