Default Removing RS spoiler - Post pics of holes!!!

Guys, im going to remove my RS spoiler and I want to see what the holes will look like. I will have them filled soon, but just in the meantime im wondering if it will look super ghetto. Post any pics you have of the holes left behind after removing the RS spoiler!

ps- my 3 piece RS spoiler will be for sale, PM me

there will be 3 holes in kind of a messed up triangle shape on the rear of your quarter panel. this is what mine looked like when we filled in the holes.

id rather live with those 3 holes than the 3 piece.

when i still had it on, i was used to it, so it wasn't that bad. but now that its off, i could never imagine having it again. so looking back now, i'd live with those 3 holes

Not sure... I just took that picture last night! Lol the white crap is just leftover doublesided tape... It'll look much better and be less noticeable if you clean it up, but far from perfect.

Get some plastic plugs from Lowes and paint them body color...it will look better than gaping *** holes. Plus it wont leak....

thats what i was thinking, i know a guy at a local dealership body shop who said he could weld the holes shut, do the body and paint, and blend into the hatch/fenders for around $600. ill do it eventually, but damn!

Does anyone know if there's any type of sticker that would cover the holes instead of putting plugs into it...
