Default Rear CDC ducktail spoiler removal?

I have a 06 gt which I bought from a previous owner. It already had the CDC ducktail rear spoiler on. My question is has anyone removed the spoiler and had the holes filled in? If you have how much did it cost to fill and get painted?

I don't think the CDC rear spoiler looks bad it's just not what I want. If you guys have a rough idea how much it would cost me it would help greatly. Thanks.

There's going to be holes on both rear quarter panels and the trunk lid. Personally, I'd leave it. I think it's one of the better looking spoilers on the car.

Check out the CDC install manual for more details about how this spoiler mounts.

Your best bet if your wanting to save some money is to find a friend who can do the welding for you to fill all the holes and grind them smooth. The more body work you can do yourself that a body shop won't have too is where your going to save money.

Yea I know there are holes on both the trunk and side panels. I believe 10 total. 4 on the trunk 3 on each panel. I know it's probably going to be pricy to fix. I don't know anyone personal who can weld themselves. I was just seeing if anyone could give out a rough estimate but thanks for the replies.

You could see if someone wanted to switch with you.....that's IF they have the same color and want to go through the trouble of removing the rear quarter panels as well as the deck lid.

That seems like it would be more of a pain than just getting them filled.
