    Welcome to the board. Lots of great people here. Glad we got another from Washington State.
    I got my front spoiler from the "Maverick Connection". I believe it was $75.00. It was for the 70 to 72 Maverick/Comet. It fit my 73 Comet just fine.

    Howdy and welcome. Mas Racing products have the spoilers for less than $50.

    Here's a link to more photos of my car if you wanna take a look.

    I got all the tail light stuff from eBay with the exception of the fiberglass tail light panel. It's for a 68 Shelby and it came from Tony Branda Mustang Parts.

    You can buy everything you need from Tony Branda at:

    It's a little high priced which is the reason I bought a lot of my stuff from eBay. I probably saved $100-150 bucks. The radio/cd player is just a cheapo I got on eBay also. I wasn't going after name brand. I just wanted one that would play mp3's to cut down on the amount of cd's I needed to carry. You can get a cd player on eBay for less than $100 including shipping and mine even came with a remote.
