not a bullitt owner, Mach1 owner. The bullitt is a beautiful car, for the opposite reason as the Mach 1 and GT350. While those two scream aggressive performers, the bullitt looks refined and 'classy'

If you wanted to add a rear spoiler, I would go with something akin to the PP2 spoiler, not an 'in your face' pedestal type. same with the front. nothing two aggressive/in your face.

I went back and forth when I bought my car. GT350 or Bullitt.

I decided since I’m not going to track it the understated look of Bullitt won out. And I don’t regret my decision at all.

OP - your car - your decision. But it sounds like you’re leaning towards not doing it.

Now I‘ll get to the end of the thread and see you bought one.

Like putting a moustache on the Mona Lisa...

You say that likes it's a bad idea.

NO!!

Probably the last thing I'd put on a Bullitt is a spoiler.

Started with the PP2 front spoiler. Still looked like a Bullit. Then a set of Shelby rims 305/315. Still looked like a Bullitt to most of the world. Bunch of engine mods later needed to get rid of some heat, so Cervini GT500 hood. Not a Bullitt any more. Next replace front grill with FPP all black one. Car looked out of balance front to back. So after a trip to the auto wrecks to get a trunk lid just in case this was the one mod that there was no “just putting the stock one back on” mod. Drilled some holes in princesses butt. Now she has some Roush tail feathers. Had ditch the big Bullitt hubcap on the deck panel because it’s not really any more. That being said have every piece to put it back to stock if I ever desire to. Only completed pic I have is with spring wheels until roads are clean enuff for the big stickies

I don’t think Steve McQueen would be mad at ya at all. How well does that hood work in terms of extracting the heat from the engine bay?

 

[Whipple Bullitt]

Very well. Was concerned about it lifting and if I needed hood pins, but it stays down better than stock one at 150+mph.

Personal recommendation/opinion; I would not add a spoiler if you do not intend to add a front splitter to balance out the flow of downforce on both ends of the vehicle.

Will you notice it with most normal everyday driving? Probably not. However, if you do any kind of spirited driving it may cause issues with the aero.

If you're doing one, do some research and get an appropriate splitter to compliment and balance it out or skip it altogether IMO
