^^that cobra bumper cover with the Saleen wing is a sexy combo. I'm even liking the '86 tail lights.

Anyway Derek, you're really worried about the weight of the wing on your streetcar? You're officially not allowed to poke fun at me on facebook anymore! Besides, if there's anywhere you wouldn't mind a little extra weight on your car, it's there! I almost put a glass hatch and lexan window on one of my foxes many years ago... then I was like, Wait, WHAT? Weight reduction over the back tires? No bueno!

True but you know I can make that thing hook! Once the rust on this hatch gets bad I'm going to a glass hatch. That's prob when I will change the wing.

The saleen wing has been proven to slow the car down in the quarter mile. The weight means very little, its aerodynamic properties are what's important. Not a wing I would think you would be interested in regardless of weight.

About the only wing not mentioned here is the stacked wing originally from saleen, some like it, some hate it.

A wing is about more than just the wing itself, its about the car as a package. For example I like the saleen wing, but it looks horrible on a car with draglites. It's really not black or white.

While we're talking about changing spoilers, do any of the spoilers share the same mounting hole patterns?

pretty sure the GT and saleen do.. cobra might use some of the LX holes...

I would second that. That is what I thought too. When I got a rust free hatch to replace my original rust-o-hatch, I got one from a GT so my Saleen spoiler would bolt right up to it.
