Spoiler delete & Painted Badges
 
So I decided to take my spoiler off after reading some of the threads on here and soon Ill have my badges painted black. The black GT badge is kind of hard to see. I had an extra laying around so I tried it out on that 1 and just taped it over the one on my car.

I want to give my car a "race car" look and sound so soon ill be changing my rims to black S style rims, black "GT" fuel door, eibach pro kit, and a electric cutout.

Also a while back I took my mufflers off and said I would get some video up on how it sounded. I kind of did.

The :16 second mark you can hear me, 1:42 mark, 8:16 mark (you can hear me doing a burnout on the run before), 8:59 mark (the best im revving up and holding it)

You can hear me doing a burnout in front of this guys car and launching

This one has a bunch of wind noise but you can compare it to the other cars and such

When I would go under bridges and revved up it would tickle my ear drums.

Yeah Ill get some pics of the plugs for you. Ill pm you later this week. The 3m crap was a pain in the ass. I tried my finger like I did on the 3m tape that was on my rear blackout panel but it didnt work. I used Goo Gone, carefully scraped with small flat head screw driver. I wasnt trying to get under the tape with the screw driver just the top bulk of it. I soaked the tape a bunch of times, rubbed with a towel, and then rubbed with soap and water.

I had to do some modifying to the plugs so I could use the same size on all of the holes since whoever installed my spoiler apparently had 3 different size holes. 2 were just right, 1 was a smaller hole, and the last was oval (WTFhttp://smiliesftw.com/x/laughwtf.gif)

^^I recently took my spoiler off and my holes looked exactly how you described yours.
