Im undecided on the spoiler. If I take it off id have to have the holes filled and the rear trunk repainted. It looks ok unless the automatic one is up..

Garage
The automatic spoiler can be disabled at a dealer. I kind of like the trunk mounted unit you have there. I'd leave it.
That's an interesting looking Ranchero in the garage, or is it a Falcon? That would be a heap of fun with a healthy 351 under the hood.

Figured I would post an update on this project. Ended up taking a long time but it is finally done.

The carpet and seats came out pretty good. Here are some photos of the car in various stages. I ended up tearing out and replacing all of the carpet as well as the foam underneath the carpet. The leather and foam on both seats was also replaced. The carpet is a shade darker than stock but once all of it was torn out and the seats got re-installed you would never know its not stock.







Since everything was torn apart I put in aftermarket heaters in the seats and wrapped the console lid in matching leather. The only thing I wish I would have done to the interior would have been to paint the console to match the exterior of the car. This 13 year old car actually has that new car smell!

Here are a couple photos of the exterior. The 911 bumper cover went right on and gives it a slightly different look. There was a cut out in the middle of the bumper to accommodate the third radiator that the S has. I had the stock spoiler disabled because it looks goofy with both.
