I Need Photoshop help and Opinions!
3 Attachment(s)
I also probably need psychiatric help, but we won't go into that. :p
#1) Should I get a GT500 spoiler or keep it wingless? A GT500 spoiler is the one and only spoiler I like for S197's. It's either that spoiler or nothing at all. I don't want or need anyone's opinions about that. What I'd like to know is if someone could photoshop a GT500 spoiler onto my car so I can get an idea as to what it will look like. I've Googled it, but I haven't seen any black Mustangs with the blackout panel I have with a GT500 spoiler. These pictures might be useful to photoshop. Attachment 12400 Attachment 12401 #2) What do you guys think about this grille? http://www.americanmuscle.com/black-...ille-05gt.html I'm still on the fence about it. I like it, but I'm not sure if it will look all that great. I've Googled this, too. But all I found was this picture and it looks awesome on this Mustang... and damn, I love that GT500 chin spoiler. Attachment 12402 Disclaimer: None of this means that I am definitively doing any of this to my car. It's just that I've been thinking about it and have no idea as to what I want to do and I want some input. :) |
I'm bumping up my thread so you guys will see it.

What does the GT500 spoiler look like?
/too lazy to open new window and search I think Bullitt grille is the way to go, TBH, IMO. <3 |

I'm about to leave work, so I'll look for a decent picture when I get home... if I can get my fucking wireless internet in my room to work. :mad: If not, I'll post from my Wii. Thanks, Pee. :) |
See if you can get one from a side-rear or rear view, like your photos. The horizontal angle doesn't need to be dead on but the vertical angle needs to be, so you shouldn't be able to see the top of the wing.

Okay. I will try to find a picture tomorrow because I am posting on my Wii. Wireless isn't working for my computer. I don't know how to link photos from this shit and it is a pain the ass just to type this!
|
The Wii just doesn't seem hardcore enough for someone like you, BS. Haha
|
wings are pointless...
Wii rocks... Pee rocks cocks... |
Your car is PERFECT!
Considering you dont want to add that bullitt grille. |
Yea honestly id leave it as is, i think if you added a wing it would throw it off, and i just dont like the grill.
|
i would leave it.

I personally don't think there is anything better than a duck tail spoiler on the 197's, they just look fucking perfect. If I had an 05-09 that would be my first mod after Wheels & Springs to get the stance right..
http://www.americanmuscle.com/cldecodusp2.html Wayyyyy Cheaper directly from CDC. http://www.classicdesignconcepts.com...ct_detail&p=96 That's JM2C. Also, on the Grille.. The black Billett is cool, but I'm with Kevin, I prefer the cleaner/retro look, but more like this.. I also understand the want to keep the fogs, so that's more of a personal call. http://www.americanmuscle.com/black-...le-0509gt.html |
If any spoiler, go with the one thats parted, like its split by a smaller section, i cant seem to find a photo.
|
I personally like the GT500 wing...so I say go for it. And if it were up to me to replace the fogs/pony on the 05-09s I'd go with the retro one like Evan posted about.
|
Those other ducktail spoilers just don't do anything for me. I also don't like those plain billet grilles. Makes the headlights look too far apart and there's nothing to break it up in the front. Just makes the front end look too wide, in my opinion.
But thanks for your opinions, guys. I appreciate it. :) Kevin, will these pictures work? http://www.allfordmustangs.com/forum...tang-24456.jpg This one might work if you can flip it around. Plus, there is no denying how sexy that wing looks on a black Mustang. http://photos-g.ll.facebook.com/phot...79926_7115.jpg This picture is HUGE, so I'll just paste the URL. http://www.machinsanity.com/mustang/...iler%20002.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_i...0030_large.jpg |
Dont change the front of the it looks perfect the way it is, but put on the spoiler. Remember you're not putting on a park bench, just a little sutile finishing touch.

The main reason for me wanting a spoiler is because I don't want to have to keep dealing with the holes. I have rubber plugs in them now and they have started to deteriorate after over a year. I have this interior trunk panel thing I want to permanently install, and once it is installed, I won't have access to the spoiler plugs/holes unless I tear the panel off. If I get a spoiler, I won't have worry about those holes ever again. Or, I could just debadge the whole damn car like I planned on doing in the first place. |
Well, as much as I hate Mustangs with no spoiler... I'd have to say leave it alone, never liked the GT500 spoiler.
I would go with the grille though. |

I would definitely go with the spoiler. I say no on the grille, but only because I would LOVE to see a GT500 front end on your car.

I don't think I'm going to go with that grille. I just realized I would have to drill holes in the stock grille and I'm not too keen on that. I could attach it with some 3M tape, though... Making decisions sucks. :mad: |
Just save your money and buy that supercharger that nobody seems to want you to get ;)
Your car looks damn good already. |

?? I know, I know.. Don't like the duck tail. yeah, yeah, yeah... :rolleyes: I'm trying as hard as I can, because I know that CDC duck tail spoiler would look f'ing sick on your car. |

To me, it doesn't look like that spoiler belongs on that car. You see the lip where it attaches to the bumper by the tail lights? That part irritates me. I think those hole filler things look tackier than just having black plugs. Thanks for your suggestions, though. :) |
So what did you deicide on?

But, I am still undecided. If that grille was an entire replacement instead of an overlay, I'd be on that junk like white on rice and a glass of milk on a paper plate in a snowstorm. |
I actually like the grill overlay. If you didn't care about keeping fogs I'd definitely get that billet grill with the tri-pony, looks so classic and badass. As far as the wing, your call. I love the duck tail, the gt500 wing doesn't do a whole lot for me.

You guys are no help! I've got 12 votes, 3 of you each voted for the same thing with 25% equality to votes across the board! :p
I think I am going to get the grille. May still get the spoiler later on, but for now I will leave it wingless. @Sean, my biggest concern with it being an overlay is that I will still have to take the other grille off to clean the stock grille if I notice it is getting dirty. Also, I don't want to drill into my stock grille, so I might just use 3M tape to hold it onto the front. I know that will work. |
I think your car is fucking awesome just the way it is!!! But make yourself happy, nobody else will.

do it.
|
Thanks, Kevin! :)
Now that it has been put into perspective by the photoshop, I think it looks really good. But, I like my car wingless better. |
Update to my old-ass thread:
I went with Zig, Sean, & Evan's suggestions and ordered the black billet upper and lower grille combo kit yesterday. They should be here and be installed by this weekend. I'll try to get some pictures up. http://www.americanmuscle.com/0509gt...utout-kit.html I also ordered the black tail light trim. That should completely finish the rear of my car, along with my mods for a long, long, long time. :( http://www.americanmuscle.com/black-...trim-0509.html |
