You will have to fill the holes from the spoiler. Most likely the body shop will fill them and repaint the whole deck lid.

It isn't hard at all. The spoiler takes about 3 minutes to take off. I just got some plugs and painted them white which is close enough for the color of my car. It deffinately looks better spoilerless. I haven't got it professionally done because this is just temporary until I get a 281 spoiler.

Four nuts on an '03. You may also find that the deck-lid paint has adhered to the wing gasket and will tear when you remove the wing--this has been seen mostly on dark colour cars, and I've never seen it tear so badly that replacing the wing doesn't cover it up...[/align]
