    Okay this is a rather difficult question to explain. Okay the Ford maverick GRABBERS have that little thing that sticks out on the front bumper on the bottom. It's only on the grabbers. Does anybody know if you can that part on a regular maverick???

    That's not a Grabber part, it's aftermarket. One used to be made specifically for Mavericks and Comets by a company called MAS but it's no more. A used MAS front spoiler is an option, or several of us have had success with Mustang ones.

    So I could purchase a 71 Ford mustang front spoiler and stick it on there?

    Anything other than a MAS spoiler, built to fit a Maverick, will need some sort of tweeking to get it to fit just right (y)

    71 might not be so good contour-wise, and might be wider. A lot of guys state that 69-70 Mustang spoilers are close enough to work well. If you search here, you will find a lot of discussions about this.

    Actually.....it is 1969-1970 SHELBY front spoiler....not a Mustang. Totally different.

    I thought both were in use with good results. That is why I didn't specify.

    I have never seen anybody use a 1969-1970 MUSTANG one before that I can recall. The have a different valence than the Shelby. Maybe somebody with a Mustang spoiler will chime in.
