Believe it or not, I got this wing off off ebay Brand New, already painted for 38 bucks SHIPPED. The box had a build date on it of September 1997. This baby had been sitting in a box for over 10 years.. I basically stole it at this price.

Hope you like it :)

Theres one of those wings on a post98 at my school. Are they a stock wing or a mercury option or something?
 
Looking good! I prefer the lip spoiler on a pre98, but at $38 painted it definitely can't be beat!
 
Thanks for all the compliments eveyone :)


To everyone who is asking if it is stock or aftermarket, I honestly do not know. It does not have any ford marking on it, just the word contour engraved on the back of it under one of the mounts.. If i had to guess tho, I'd say aftermarket. The box It came in had no ford marking either, just a plain brown box. And the box was original, had september 1997 written on it.

Install wasnt too bad... The screws that came with it were too damn short, but less than a buck later and quick trip to the hardware store, and I was all set. I couldnt have done it without my wife tho.. She lined up the holes, marked the spots, and guided me with the drill. She's amazing :)
 
how did you mount the pro burners? yours is the only car the ive seen non svt with the pro burners in the fogs.

and could you possible get up under it and put up a picture of the wiring you did or changed on the fogs?

We simply drilled through the plastic mounts where the slotted black delete covers were. On the top, a screw connects them to the upper part of the bumper. On the bottom, its a type of christmas tree clamp. Drill a hole next to this bigger hole and put a large bolt and locking nut through it to secure it. It was easy. A bit of a pin to drill through without cracking the plastic, so be careful, but once the hole is made, it was easy. As for the wiring, it comes with all the wire you will need and instructions as well, and even quick connectors for easy wiring. It even comes with a lighted rocker switch for turning the lights on and off. We cut a small hole in the dash and put the rocker witch in there. It fits perfect and looks stock.

I do have 2 problems with the Pro Burners tho.. No. 1, The cheap chrome reflective paint inside one of the lights is flaking off and looks not so great. No. 2 is the light inside the rocker switch died already. I've had these things less than 6 months, and rarely use them..


But for 20 bux, I guess u get what u pay for.

Pre98 and SVT bumpers have same fog light brackets, so I assume the mounting is exactly the same.
 
ok im trying to figure how people are using the factory harness. if they are splicing or if they are running the wires up to the relay in the fuse box. thank you for your reply.
