Sorry I don't like the huge wings myself, maybe I'm too old (31) Its just that they don't match up on the car too well, but I'll say one thing though it does stand out, especially if its a different one, so if thats what your looking for, you have have suceeded

Sorry about this one too... but I don't like it. It just doesn't fit the style of the SVT. If you like it though, that's what counts. I will agree that it does make that SVT unique.

You may try posting a pic from a different view, It's funny how one angle or perspective can change a few minds.

I personally think that spoilers look quite foolish unless they serve some functional purpose. In order for spoilers, valances, etc. to actually work, two things must happen:
1) The item must be engineered to work with the vehicle, (this takes lotsa time and money) and must be installed on the vehicle per the specifications of the engineer who designed the component.
2) The operator of the vehicle must put the vehicle in conditions which merit the usage of such equipment. (read: if you don't drive agressively at >80 MPH, it probably ain't gonna do much to help performance, and could actually hinder performance of the car, *including* making the car more unstable/unsafe.
If the spoiler doesn't actually work to improve performance of the car, then it does nothing for the performance, and is more of a fashion statement, and possible an impediment to safety and performance.
But hey...opinions are like the ol' brown "*" ...everyone has one, and they all stink! So, if you dig it, keep it!

Looks like a cop magnet to me. I haven't seen one of those that I actually like. Maybe if it were a little lower, was a little wider from front to back, and was made out of carbon fiber, it would look cool.
Sorry man, but that thing looks like someone went and bolted some soccer field bleachers on your car.

Sell it for some mod money!
It completely destroys the rolling curves of the car. Get some rims to make it stand out not a wing!
