Whats the other one look like? Stock looks ok.

Off topic... What headlights do you have? The stock pre 99 headlights HAVE to go.

Love the rims.

I definitely prefer the stock one. The other one is too much. Doesnt flow with the car at all.

i kinda like the stock wing more too, the saleen wing seemed to fit alot more with the cobra r rims, but with the fr500's i kinda like the stock spoiler.

The answer is C: S281 spoiler
Just shot these now. Flows so well with the car, even if its ghetto painted like mine:

its ok but

I have a 99 & the first thing I did was get rid of it ....... the only one that I ever liked was the 03-04 cobra & the 86 Monte Carlo SS ...... the rest I can live without ..the 05 -09 look much better wing-less ..... badge-less is better also ....

Kaenan. Saleen makes em too, but its urethane and often wavy with only two bolts and double sided tape so water gets in. ABC ecxlusive makes em but the tips are really pointy and it's a bit more angular but still a quality piece. Kaenan makes the ones that everyone's trying to buy when they end up with the others.

Also ABC makes a wail tailish one that comes up more in the curve/height

Brandon, as much as I love your car, I never did care for the S351 spoiler... The stock looks good, but the S281 is the winner IMO!!! I always wanted to install one on the SN95's I have owned... I had an authentic 1 that I was gonna install on my yellow 95, & just like CobraRed stated, it was wavy, & only had 2 bolt holes... Kaenen is the way to go....
