I agree. Much cleaner looking without the stuck on spoiler. That's why mine will not have it. I may put on a ducktail spoiler (with the 3m tape) to see if I like it.

I just tried to get some pics but it's too dark, even in the garage. I'll get some in the sun tomorrow.

I got a whole new trunk lid, had the emblem holes welded shut, and it never had spoiler holes. Swapped them out so I could save the original.

I just can't imagine taking them off, I think they are two of the coolest looking parts on the car. Of course I haven't seen the pix yet.

It looks nice, but I love the classic look that the cap gives the car. I'd never consider taking it off. It just seems to have lost some of it's charm. But that's just my opinion.

Hey, wldchic,

Girl, you have a really nice rear end.


Now you got me contemplating the idea of pulling the gas-cap badge off mine too, when I get it.

How did you "shave" the lock, BTW?

To each their own. Personally I think it loses the whole point of the retro look when you remove it. The chrome disc that has GT on it is a classic look. A guy here at work has a 68' and they look so cool sitting next to each other. You can totally see the design similarities. I do however plan on painting the spoiler black like they were in the 60s'. Plus I think the black spoiler on my yellow car with black stripes will tie it all together well. A black chin spoiler to match would also be cool but haven't seen any that impress me so far.

I like the look of the car sans the spoiler...

What I don't get is why you just didn't order the car with the spoiler delete option.
