Mach 1 chin spoiler on my terminator

[SkipBuxton]

I am thinking of getting rid of the black impact strip below the bumper - and replacing it with the mach 1 chin........... I have seen a few on and I think they look nice.......any thoughts or suggestions ?

I like mine, in my sig.

It looks OK from the front, but from the side its not quite right. Its too short so it doesn't line up with the edge of the wheel well.

+1. To be honest, I'm not even sure I like it better from the front either. The front of the car rolls back under and the mach1 spoiler goes against that line. Just MO

It looks really bad. Don't do it.

That's just my opinion though.

IMO it just doesn't look right. It wasn't designed for the Cobra, so that is part of the reason why it just doesn't seem to look quite right. But there are undoubtedly those who like the Mach 1 chin spoiler look. And if they choose to use it, I say great. Make your car a reflection of your own personal taste vs. the tastes of others (including me).

Well - the more I look at and hear your thoughts...........I am gonna leave it alone. My problem is the impact strip has some minor rubs/ scratches that car show gurus look at and degrade. I guess I can call FORD and see what a new one costs = PIITB

Or I may yank it off and try wetsanding it and repainting the thing flat black ??

Now you've come to your senses. :-D

Mine had marks and looked really bad from when it was put on a flat bed when the motor blew. I went to advanced and got some of Mothers Black trim stuff and put it on. It looks BRAND new.

How much does a replacement lip cost anyways?? Time to replace mine.

i personally dont like it, i dont think it flows right with the car. on a gt that doesnt have one and a mach they do look bad ass tho imo.

I bought a new one and it was alittle of 100 bucks. Stock one that is.

I have a Mach 1 on my 03 Cobra I get components all the time I think it looks pretty cool..It makes the front look a little lower and its different..

I think it looks kewl too. I have seen a few cobra owners make extensions for the Mach 1 spoilers on the front. They install the spoiler, take a measurement of the length of the spoiler to the end of the front bumper cover, trim the exact measurement off of the stock 03 spoiler and install it next to the Mach spoiler. Then you add some black silicone between the piece and the spoiler to make it look flush. Once you Armour All it, you can't even tell it's two pieces.

It comes in a big box, which makes shipping expensive on it...
