Cobra or Saleen spoilers on Mach 1's?

I'm not really a fan of the stock spoiler on the Mach 1's, and am considering a few different options.

I'm thinking of either a painted GT spoiler or a Saleen spoiler (which will fit with the factory drilled out holes in the trunk lid), or possibly an 03/04 cobra spoiler later on down the road (probably unlikely due to the cost of filling in the holes of the trunk lid).

Anyone have a painted GT, saleen or 03 cobra spoiler? I'd like to see some pics.

Re: Cobra or Saleen spoilers on Mach 1's?

I was in the same boat as you. I didn't like the stock spoiler at all. So I went wingless for a while, then found a cobra spoiler for cheap. Here's the pic.

Your Mach looks bad-azz from the back, man. Those tinted tail-lights look great!

Re: Cobra or Saleen spoilers on Mach 1's?

how much does a new decklid and spoiler cost, or filling in the holes and painting a new spoiler?

Sorry man, can't help you there. I got the decklid and spoiler from a black cobra. All I did was swap the decklid over in 20 mins.

H&R SS springs in the back with urethane isolators. The front is QA1 coil overs with 14" 200 springs adjusted all the way to the bottom. I should have gotten 12" springs so I'd have a little more adjustment out of them. Yes they're 18s.

Re: Cobra or Saleen spoilers on Mach 1's?

I have a Saleen wing on mine. I love the look, but I'll be honest in that the Saleen wings fit like crap if you really start looking at it closely. Most people probably wouldn't care or notice too much, but I expected a much better fit from the original.

Not to take away from the glory of your car (which is gorgeous btw), but can you post up any more pics of that Black Mach 1 with the 03 cobra wheels? Those are the wheels I wanna go with soon.

Any idea what size (18 or 17) and and idea what suspension setup he's got?

I'm with you 2! That black mach looks great!

Dans looks good as well, but I could not go that far with mine. I like your wheels Dan.

I have always liked how the cobra wing looks, especially from behind.

Re: Cobra or Saleen spoilers on Mach 1's?

Why a painted GT wing??
If you want it painted the color of your car just paint yours the GT and MACH wings are exactly the same except ours are black and theirs are painted to match the car no other difference.
