    How did you mount it, my comet valance has different mounting points than what my spoiler has

    Mine fit bolt-on in the stock holes.
    I just had to bend it a little on the pass corner. I suspect my valance is a little bit crooked :p

    I wasn't even aware there were stock holes there, I believed I had to drill and make everything myself :)

    I like the pro tour spoiler the best, I like the way it lines up with the comet grill too....

    I wasn't originally too keen on the slant in the middle, but I have to say it looks waaay better in person! No regrets on ordering it :)

    Took a few, but most came out looking like crap because of the flash on the camera.. This one looks a little better though:

    Had it on the car (picture of it earlier) but I can't get it on the trailer with it on.............and the tow straps get in the way.
    I'm going to figure out a way to maybe use a type of Dzus fastenersn.

    I had to use ramp extenders when loading my Maverick on the trailer. It also will help if you lower your trailer jack and jack up the front of the trailer a few inches. It was always close but never scraped.

    Thanks Ray, I do raise the tongue but don't have room in the driveway to hook-up the trailer/pickup and use extenders plus the tie down straps would never clear the spoiler.
    I also never drive the car on of off the trailer because the headers hang so low if I'm in the seat they will not clear the trailer................my winch
    does the work without burning the $14 gallon fuel.
