Default So i just recently added the pace car spoiler to my 2004 LS.

- Album on Imgur

There's the link to the pictures. Now it actually wasn't too hard to get on the car, but whoever molded it didn't do the best job you can totally tell that the spoiler isnt OEM, but i will say it looks a million times better than just the base model trunk. If you plan on doing this to your car be aware that the instructions SUCK. do not you a 1/2 in bit because you dont need to i forget exactly what size, but just be careful when doing the install. Its not hard, but its very time consuming. I believe total it took my around 2 hours to do, and it probably didnt help that it was damn near a hundred degrees combined with NY's humidity.

I can see what you mean about the fitment issues, but still looks 100% better

thats not bad, ive done mines by myself, removed old one, painted new one and installed, it looks good but i had went to get my gf spoiler painted and i had wish i had gone with that option, but the monte carlo just looks weird without any spoiler in my opinion

Hell you did a fine job, does look to be pretty time consuming. Glad you worked your way through it. Looks waaay nicer with your spoiler mounted. Good job!!

Who's FoxBody? What year an 86? Looks like a project car... You can do so much with that platform, so much aftermarket support for them.

i agree i hated the way it looked before, but even though i added the spoiler and I've got a nice dual exhaust on it i don't think ill be adding the SS badges on it. I'm not really a believer in the whole faking your car thing.
