97 wing?

1997cobra · August 1st, 2010, 01:43 PM

Hey I am new to MM and am needing some help on a wing. I purchased my cobra about 2 months ago and the biggest problem with it is the huge wing the previous owner put on it. I am needing some help deciding if I should return to the stock or go with s281.

97S281 · August 1st, 2010, 03:27 PM

Go with the S281.

Its all personal preference, WE didnt buy YOUR car.

try going wingless. thats how im rocking it right now.

ReverendDexter · August 1st, 2010, 08:02 PM

Go wingless. Stock mustang wings are totally nonfunctional anyway.

Go with s281 wing definitely, AM is now selling KAENEN wings now. As soon as I get some extra cash I'm buying one.....

I also love the wingless look. I actually took mine off about 2 months ago, but when I finally got it off it had left a ring where it sat. So i tried cleaning it, used rubbing compound everything. Then I noticed it wasnt dirt, it was where the spoiler scratched the paint off of the trunk. So annoyed and disappointed I put the stock spoiler back on.

I dont think the holes will match up. I was gonna get the 281 wing, and every where I looked it said will not fit Cobra.

wannabeimportkiller · August 1st, 2010, 10:45 PM

The holes will match up....the only exception I've EVER seen is 94-95 cobra's. Other then that it should fit.

koessl · August 2nd, 2010, 12:37 AM

The 94 & 95 wings are different

Boostr · August 2nd, 2010, 12:43 AM

You know what, your right.

97S281 · August 2nd, 2010, 05:23 PM

Damn, AM is kinda high on that at $269. You can get them all day on ebay for $199.

wannabeimportkiller · August 2nd, 2010, 06:16 PM

Yeh but I find Ebay a little iffy sometimes so I try to avoid them if I can

tfofkyle · August 3rd, 2010, 01:48 AM

kaenens run about $225 + shipping if i remember correctly. theyre not too much more expensive from am (with the discount code) i love the look and wish i could afford it - just have other things that need to be attended to (brakes, tune, etc)

1997cobra · October 11th, 2010, 03:09 PM

I decided to just take the wing off for awhile and i like the look alot better than what I thought I would so i think i'm just gonna go with that for now
