Default Remove spoiler or not

I was looking at some pictures, and I cannot decide. Should I remove my rear spoiler, or keep it on. Some pictures I look at, they look great, but some do not.

Thanks for the input

Get a cobra spoiler or remove it. Depends on how the car is set-up. Cars with yellow/black set-ups look nice with no spoiler or a cobra, but stock cars look weird without it. Idk it's a very fine line.

I agree, it is a very fine line. Unless your car has some work done to it on the exterior, I say a spoiler delete looks silly. If you have different wheels, a lowering, a chin spoiler, etc., I think you could pull it off. It looks really mean with no spoiler on there but you'd have to do some work to pull it off. And personally, I say no-go to the Cobra spoiler; don't make it look like a Cobra if it isn't.

But ultimately, it's up to you. If you like it, go for it and stand by your ride!

Some can pull it off, others not so much. Only 4 bolts and it's off, so just take it off and see if you like it or not.

Only if he does his scoop mat black, then would look pretty sweet. Id say leave it btw. Unless you know your car can pull of "The" look without it, keep it.

Wtf? Why would he paint the scoop? Painted scoops look gay, just imo. I'm with Sean...try it both ways...four bolts and you'll know if you like it or not.

Unless the car is lowered and has wider tires or wheels it looks weird. I took mine off after I got my car, mostly to loose weight for the drag strip. And it looked terrible with my car so high up. With it lowered now it might look good, but I like my spoiler so I am keeping it for now.

True, it definatly has to be a 01-04 model, i really dont like the 99-00 spoilers. And yeah machs do look sweet with the mix, like kings. Again thats if you were really goin for a car color/black setup. Just my opinion

Painted scoops look cheap and unfinished. Wingless looks best with a low stance with and some fat tires out back when wingless.

D: I dont think they look cheap, my only worry is that if i got mine silver, it wouldnt match up right. And yeah fat tires are needed if no wing, like 10"

I don't get how me having a Mach contradicts what I said...? And that entire GT is gay, IMHO.

Do you guys think mat black looks better than a glossy black for scoop/wing?

I think you should delete it, expecially if your gettin fat tires in the back, i got rims comin for christmas to and i think i might delete mine.But thats just my opinion, good luck with it!

Once you get the rims lower the car black out the tail lights and lose the wing

yellow stangs with darker tailights look cool with no wing if they are low with wide tires.

I have specific taste

Low and Wide and wingless is the way to go. I love my car with no wing, but have to admit, depending on the color and the stance, some of them just look goofy.
