Painted Spoiler!!

mustangvsix · 08-10-2006, 07:09 PM

Here are a few pics after a quick wash, with my spoiler now painted black.

Looks badass, but I here the spring nazi's comming...

TClark22 · 08-10-2006, 07:22 PM

yes...please lower it! look 1000 times better when u do

determined · 08-10-2006, 07:23 PM

i agree... H&R supersports ftw! also maybe get some smoked tint or blackout tint for ur taillights...but all in all it looks great with the black on ur hood and the black rims!

1st of all...wingless FTW!!!

now...it looks better than it did in white IMO.

If you got the honeycomb blackout panel for the rear you'd be in business for sure.

Oh, and if your going to have the wing...move it back...it always looks better that way IMO.

Is the black out stripe on your hood a decal or paint?

Very Nice!

Looks really good, first time I've seen that style spoiler painted black, now move it back to the edge of the trunk and you'll be set.

Pilks · 08-10-2006, 08:21 PM

move it back moreeeeeeeeeeeeee

mustangvsix · 08-10-2006, 09:25 PM

lowering it will happen, eventually but my driveway is pretty steep and i am not sure i would be able to get in, and parking in the garage is more important then lowering it right now.
As for moving the wing back, i think i will probably have to do that, since i really like it on all the stangs i have seen it done on.
as for my taillights they have the taillight outlines on them and i prefer that over tint, so they are staying as is.
my black stripe on my hood is the 35th anniversary stripe sold here at MT.

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions, keep 'em coming.

TClark22 · 08-10-2006, 09:32 PM

dude...lowering it wont make u not able to get up a drive way no matter how steep...it just matters how the curb is

my friends house has a damn tall curb that i thought i could never get up with my H&R supersports but i have just as much clearance on my own driveway which has a smaller curb...just take it at angles

ShapeShifter · 08-10-2006, 11:38 PM

looks real good!!

Mug11 · 08-11-2006, 05:32 AM

looks good dude, love those tailights. I don't know why i ever took mine of

But dont listen to children of MB, do it the way you want it, it's your car

Rabbit · 08-11-2006, 06:18 AM

Looking damn good. And yeah, moving that spoiler is the best thing you could do , it's easy as hell too. I moved mine 2 3/4" (that's as far as you can possible go and still cover the factory holes).

vertstang232 · 08-11-2006, 08:38 AM

looks really good, you should move the spoiler back and it will look better, and if you decide you dont like it black i will sell you a crystal white one

matrixpuba · 08-11-2006, 10:52 AM

im not feeling the black spoiler. a guy a work with has a white gt and did the same thing. my opinion is it looked better white.

pepsiaddict · 08-11-2006, 11:07 AM

To jump on the bandwagon, yes, move it back to the edge.

I moved mine back yesterday, took me maybe 45 minutes just because I measured everything 9 times, but it ended up being perfectly even, and it's a huge difference. I'm glad I went all the way back, don't reuse the holes.

Ghostalker · 08-11-2006, 11:22 AM

Moving back = the sex
Lowering it would be good, I can show you my driveway and how I could get up it in my lowered 95' and how my brother can still get up it in his VERY lowered 01' KB gt vert (it has an 03 cobra bumper on it so it sticks out a bit more, and lower, making it harder to do)(its heavier so its a little bit lower than a coupe would be with the same mods) however, there is NO curb so there is no problem, its flush with th street but at a rather high angle...

mcmmotorsports · 08-12-2006, 05:10 AM

Fixed it for you. Lightened the pic, fixed the colors, moved the spoiler back and dropped it a few inches.

that picture is sweeet, now i really need to order springs, or i will be dreaming about that picture forever. Maybe i will move my wing back today....:shifty:

White04GT · 08-12-2006, 09:12 AM

what kind of black paint did you use to paint your spoiler?

just gloss black automotive paint. My spoiler actually isn't done, it only has one coat of gloss black on it. I am getting the second coat put on probably next week, then the clear coat at the same time. I will probably do it this tuesday, it's just i didn't get a chance to finish it the first time around and i need to re-prep it for paint, since i have been driving around in the rain and what not with it exposed like this.
