I had a semi back into my trunk, which cracked and scraped the trunk lid, broke the corner and center tail light, and scraped the bumper and wing. I don't plan to do anything different on the bumper as it is just scrathed can be fixed easily (and I'm not a fan of having it say Cobra or Saleen etc), and the trunk lids are all the same, but I am wondering about the wing. I currently have an 03 Cobra front bumper, so my first thought was putting on an 03 Cobra spoiler, but also thought about a Rousch wing, going wingless, or just back to stock. Any thoughts?

FYI - 2000 GT, Performance Red

If you fill in the letters on the bumper, is there any concern about the life of this mod? Is there a possibility of the fill-in "popping off" or not look so good after a few years?

Good question, I'm not sure. I know that nick the genious has his filled in, if you can PM him and ask.
I know that they make a lot of knock-off saleen rear bumpers that come with no letters, not sure about the cobra.

I'm looking for something a little more subtle.....but a good looking wing nonetheless.

I'm really unsure of what hood/spoiler combo to go with. My original though was 2000 Cobra R hood and stock spoiler. Now I'm kinda thinking about the Steeda hood with some other spoiler (possibly Cobra R). So hard to decide this stuff!

After searching for "wingless" I'm tending to lean that way (plus it saves repair costs which I can pocket/spend otherwise ). Also, I'd just order the V6 trunklid and save my stock wing as it isn't damaged that bad, so I could always remount it later if I want or if and when the car is ever sold and the new owner wanted it.

Anyone have other pictures of wingless stangs which may not have been posted before.......preferably red/performance red?
