What size nylon plugs?
Don't really remember. There were 2 diff sizes needed. I just stick one of my keys in the holes to get a good idea what size they were and went in and compared my key to the diff plugs they had.

I pulled my spoiler but bought the wrong size plugs and was too lazy to go back out to exchange them , so I filled the holes with blk. silicone (blk car) and accomplished the same results as the plugs.

You got pics??? I have a red car so that might not work. But if it's smooth instead of having little bumps I might try it.

I'm so technically behind the times and don't have a digital camera just a camera phone and haven't took the time to figure out how to post pic's yet.
Yes it's smooth and u can't tell its silicone until you're right up on the car.

off topic of plugging wholes, but does removing the spoiler hurt performance at all? i mean like the downwind on the *** end for traction? cuz i've been thinking about removing mine, but don't want to if the spoilers actually serve a purpose.....

if you really want some downforce, prop your trunk open halfway.

The photos have convinced me, mine's coming off this weekend. The Ace hardware here has black nylon, and chrome plugs--the chrome will probably be quite "blingy", however sometimes when you've got something that isn't quite right you are better off to emphasize it rather than try to hide it...[/align][/align]
