What kind of plugs did you use?

Get some "nylon locking plugs" from Home Depot and primer and paint them to match the car. They are low profile and will be a lot better than the bigger plasticty body panel plugs you get at auto stores...

I did exactly what this guy did and went to ACE and bought the same plugs.

If you have the money, buy any old deck, cover hole(s), prep, paint
At least decklids can be had cheaply. I have had my old one on a local board and craigslist for 50 bucks. It is complete except for the lock. No bites.

I can't groove on that with the top down... the car looks way to flat with out something back there.... I think that the verts always need a style/light bar too.

I like the tail ends of Cobras. Can you put one of those on your car? Looks nice and clean right now.

I have removed the plugs and installed these, I like the look on the car and its better than plugs.
