Anybody have any pics of their new 05 with the spoiler delete? I'm considering making a change to my order and delete the spoiler but I haven't seen the car without yet so I'm undecided.

Opinions?

It's in the eye of the beholder I guess.....I would have preferred the Ducktail(AKA 67/68 Shelby) but not to be.

Nah, It looks better without. I think what you mean by flat, and boring is more like clean and uncluttered. Yeah, I suppose your right, people will add a bunch of stuck on cladding all over the car ruining the clean lines IMO. To each his own I guess.

Beautiful Sonic Blue Rifleman.

wings are for airplanes.
i don't remember a wing on a 65-68 mustang. i think it looks like an after thought, and personally will order mine without it.

At first I liked the spoiler. Now I don't care one way or the other--it is OK, but not perfect.

When I order mine this spring I'll go without, since by then there should be plenty of aftermarket spoilers (e.g. nice ducktail or something else) and I don't want to have to patch holes in the trunk lid.

Thanks again Rifleman. I think I do like the spoiler after all. The car does look a little plain without it, albeit cleaner.

Does ford give you any credit to delete it?

It looks great Rifleman

Better w/o spoiler

Sonic Blue is awesome, I can't belive that Ford is taking Sonic blue away from us after this year.

I defenitely prefer no spoiler.

Now, why is ford doing away with sonic blue? Im awaiting the 06 model (not just because, but due to the fact that I will be graduating college this spring, and then able to afford one...) and definitely prefer sonic blue to the other colors.
