Mach 1 Chin Spoiler

Laser02 · **Mach 1 Chin Spoiler**

I called my dealer up and they quoted me $95.87 for the chin spoiler. This, after reading everyone else online get theirs for between $40-70. :-? He called it a "ground deflector." Same thing? That is just damned expensive. :shock:

get it online - Ford overcharges for 99% of their products

Laser02 · 08-02-2003, 03:10 PM

I agree, but, if I could get it for $40-70 from a dealer, thats way cheaper than online because of shipping and all that.

They sell them.

**SpectorV** · 08-02-2003, 03:58 PM

they are 54 bucks from gefracing.com (ford dealership online )

Laser02 · 08-02-2003, 04:38 PM

gefracing.com:

Price: $54.95
Mounting Hardware: $11.95
Oversize Charge: $12.00
Shipping: UPS Ground: $21.91
Sales Tax: $0.00
Total: $100.81

That isn't any cheaper than the overpriced ford dealership. :shock:

well i did manage to save on my tlok, ford wanted 750 gef wanted 190.00 if you are ordering OEM stuff gefracing is the place to go.

How did you guys all spend so much money on the Mach 1 chin spoiler? Total cost for me was about $45.00. That includes all the push clips. Maybe stuff is just cheaper out here. I dunno...

Hey Chris ever go to Woodburn? I'll be there the 22nd of Aug. for my first run at the track. Cant wait. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Rellik · 08-02-2003, 09:51 PM

crossroads will give yas a good deal.

Laser02 · 08-02-2003, 10:22 PM

Crossroads:
Sub-Total: $68.00
Table Rate (Best Way) : $12.00
Total: $80.00

So far they're looking the best... But that's still a ridiculous price. :oops:

Rellik · 08-02-2003, 10:25 PM

Not really people always get them through GEF.

Laser02 · 08-02-2003, 10:30 PM

Everyone on 3.8 was talking about how they got theirs for $45-$65 from local dealers. No shipping. That actually seems reasonable. And I call and it's $95 and will arrive Wednesday if I order today. And GEF is -more- expensive? That's weird. It's only like a one-inch piece of plastic. :-?

Yes I do go there! For the last three years I have gone for the All Ford Drags. It's a lot of fun. I just hope I do better this year than I did last year...

mustangman22 · 08-02-2003, 10:46 PM

maybe all those people are smoking crack.
Ford Dealers are always more expensive.

Hey, do you have a side-shot of your car?
I just want to check out your wheels - looks interesting

Doh....

I like those wheels, I think they look pretty bad ass

chrisinbeav · 08-03-2003, 10:34 AM

Thanks!!! Not to toot my own horn, I think they're pretty bad azz myself. Plus I have yet to see another Mustang with them.

KrazyPony · 08-03-2003, 02:14 PM

They look like the FR500's in Satin, I think if I were to get them I would have to get them in Chrome, they look so kewl going down the road in Chrome...

Souns like Laser02 wants sumthing for nuthing to me, the chin spoiler is not really pricey considering all the other parts out there these days, and yes the other people did probably get it cheap because they didnt have to pay for shipping, they just walked into like GEF in Atlanta and picked it up... The chin spoiler does really set a car off, but you really have to be careful with entering/exiting drive ways and speed bumps and various off road areas. We almost got 1 put on my wifes care with the 99 Cobra fron valance, but just opted not to due to some of the reason i mentioned above.

But ya never know, down the road it could still happen...

Laser02 · 08-03-2003, 05:15 PM

I don't want "sumthing for nuthing"... But if people are getting it for ~$50, why would I want to pay DOUBLE that for the exact same product? And go read the threads on 3.8... They picked it up for usually $60 from their -local dealers-. Some even got it for $40ish. And GEF is -more expensive- than my local dealer, so recommending me to online sites that cost more and take longer doesn't really help me out. :oops:
