Take the rear aerodynamics of your 2005–2009 Ford Mustang S197 to the next level with the APR Performance GTC-500 Carbon Fiber Adjustable Rear Wing. Designed for high-performance street cars, track builds, and time attack applications, the GTC-500 is APR's large-format aerodynamic wing engineered to generate substantial rear downforce while maintaining aerodynamic efficiency.
The GTC-500 features a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) developed airfoil profile designed to maintain airflow attachment and generate an effective pressure differential across the wing. With an impressive 8.88:1 downforce-to-drag ratio, the wing provides significant rear downforce without an excessive drag penalty.
A fully adjustable 0°–15° angle of attack allows drivers to fine-tune the aerodynamic setup based on track conditions and vehicle balance. Higher angles provide increased downforce for improved rear traction, cornering, and braking stability, while lower settings reduce drag for better straight-line performance.
Constructed from autoclave-cured pre-preg woven carbon fiber and supported by aircraft-grade 6061 billet aluminum risers, the GTC-500 delivers the strength, rigidity, and lightweight performance required for serious aerodynamic loads.
Important Fitment Note
Fits 2005–2009 Ford Mustang S197 applications.
The vehicle-specific mounting bases are positioned near the outer edges of the trunk lid.
Please verify your trunk and existing spoiler configuration before installation.
Key Features
CFD-Developed Airfoil The GTC-500 airfoil profile was developed using Computational Fluid Dynamics to generate high levels of downforce while minimizing unnecessary aerodynamic drag.
Adjustable 0°–15° Angle of Attack Allows the aerodynamic balance to be tuned for different tracks and driving conditions. Increase the angle for additional downforce or decrease it to reduce drag.
8.88:1 Downforce-to-Drag Ratio Optimized to provide substantial rear downforce while maintaining strong aerodynamic efficiency.
Autoclave-Cured Pre-Preg Carbon Fiber Constructed from pre-impregnated woven carbon fiber and autoclave cured in aluminum billet molds for exceptional rigidity, durability, and strength-to-weight ratio.
Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Risers Uses high-strength 10mm 6061 billet aluminum risers designed to securely support the wing under aerodynamic loads.
Vehicle-Specific Mounting Carbon fiber bottom plates provide a vehicle-specific mounting solution for the S197 Mustang.
Track-Focused Aerodynamics Ideal for track cars, time attack builds, and high-performance street Mustangs requiring significantly more rear downforce than smaller aerodynamic wing designs.
Note: Mounting bases sit near the edges of the trunk lid.
Optional Carbon Fiber Gurney Flap
An optional Carbon Fiber Gurney Flap is available for additional aerodynamic performance. Installed along the trailing edge of the airfoil, the Gurney Flap helps increase downforce and reduce airflow separation for additional rear grip at speed.
Height: 1/2" (12.7 mm)
Construction: Pre-preg woven carbon fiber
Attachment: 3M VHB double-sided tape

If have added the before and after photos. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is in that the cut out for the parking brake indentation had a carbon fiber cover, which you do have on your whole console replacement. Otherwise, as you can see, it looks great. I would like to order your door handle covers, but since you charge shipping, I will not. I will wait till you have a special on shipping. There should not be any charge for shipping on items over $100 in my opinion.
I was impressed with the quality of the Carbon Hood Vent! As with all of Carbonaddon's products I have ordered, they have been as good or better than advertised!
The product quality is great and the carbon fiber looks good. Installation of the engine bay side covers was very easy, taking less than 15 minutes. As I continue to enhance the look of the engine bay on my 2023 Vette, I will definitely look to carbonaddons for more products.
CarbonAddons products are all top quality! I have outfitted my entire ZR1X with them. All pieces look and fit great! They all match perfectly with Chevy's level2 carbon trim.
The center console is easier to install if you remove it because the gauge cluster is to close to the a/c controls. The fit was perfect and looks factory. No gaps anywhere. Love it!
Literally a perfect fit looks like a factory piece it's very thin so it doesn't protrude and look like you stuck it on there it looks like it's from the factory that he's of his fantastic one of the best products I've put on my car
Great fit and finish looks like a factory stock piece adhesive is very easy and secure it's one of the best pieces on the market and looks like a stock item after applied with easy application
Ive always had a positive experience. I’ve ordered multiple orders and I haven’t been disappointed a single time. Always quality parts, packaged well and shipped fast.
I really like the way these fit into the curves of the door handles. You can see the quality & craftsmanship that goes into their designs. I’m an extremely happy fan & i’m not easy to make happy. Thanks guys. Job well done. 👍
