Can't be the stock (from factory) spoiler, there is still a 3rd brake light on the rear deck. If it is factory, there will be nothing on the rear deck.

Unless it was a dealer option.Or It was put on by someone after the car was purchased. Friends 96 M-3 has third break light and one in the spoiler,dealer installed option.

We never had a factory spoiler option for our SVT's up here in Canada. I had to get mine put on at the dealer. I have the same spoiler as '99 SE and the '00 SVTs south of the border. Kris' does appear to sit much higher. Did the earlier Mystiques have this spoiler? Enlighten us Kris, where did you get this spoiler?

The idea of functional air scoops is a great idea. I enjoy looking at the efforts of brave pioneers that plug in the saws all and go to work.
If you wanted a really top quality look, try this....Take the car to a body shop...have them take the hood off so you can keep the car and drive it while they work on it. Have the body men put body filler or resin around the base of each scoop. Have them feather it out so you cannot see the seam between the scoop and the hood. Have the whole thing stripped, primed and repainted. The result would amaze you. It would look just like it came like that from the factory. While you were there, make sure they remove as much hood material as possible under the scoops to make the hood lighter.
Shouldn't take a shop more than a couple of days to do this for you....and you'd really be happy with the results.

nice LUND stick on scoops.  Did anyone happen to notice that they aren't even cut out?? I think this is a very clever hoax... Hey i could be wrong I am not perfect, but unless someone posts some high quality close ups and pics rom under the hood showing the holes I am not buying this story... -Mark
