To Spoiler or not to Spoiler

I was going to order a front and rear spoilers for my 73 mustang but my fiance says the rear spoiler wouldn't look right on my 73 convertible. What do you guys think?

If you have a 73 convertible with a rear spoiler could you post a picture so my fiance can see how it looks?

Do it... I agonized over it for months for my coupe.. I'm definitely glad I did it (make sure you get the original style pedestal mounts that are cast and don't get the cheap ones made of plastic. They break really easy!)

If I can find the pic, I have a friend with an all-original 73 CJ vert with both spoilers. I so "yes", spoil it!

My 72 coupe has both the rear deck and chin spoilers. It was done by one of the POs, but I like it and would probably have done it myself if it wasn't done already.
I don't know if you can tell from my avatar.

i vote with your girlfriend....

i thougt about it for mine..............but decided against it......my front end is lowered an inch already and i don't think the rear spoiler looks good on a vert.............

but to each their own.........

although, if my car had them when i bought it, i don't know if i would have taken them off

I hope this helps!

Where did he get that roll bar?

I don't like spoilers on coupes and verts. It's just me. I think it looks funny, like putting Oldsmobile rally wheels on a Buick.

Oboe's is one of the better applications I have seen though.

Well I didn't get as many votes on this as I would have liked, but it seems like the overwhelming majority of you think that the spoilers should go on. I recon I'll order them, get um painted, and slap them on the stang and see how they look. There rear spoiler I want to for sure put on but I'm still deciding on the front. Thanks to those of you who shared pics and opinions.

Spoilers on a 73 mustang?

Install both the front and rear spoilers.

Only put on the rear spoiler.

Just put on the front spoiler.

Spoiler spoil the stang. Leave them both off.
