I recently filled the holes left from the spoiler with Nylon Plugs. Here's my thread I made about it.

Wow, that looks surprisingly good man. I think I could live with that for a while until I either find a matching spoiler less trunk lid or get mine smoothed. Anyone have a general quote for how much it would run? I am guessing right around $350 or so because of the fact that you have to paint, weld, etc., etc.

Wingless FTW. I think about repainting my trunk and filling in the holes. Plugs are like 5 bucks for 4 at LOWES.

Nice thats not bad at all. I may just do that instead of telling the dude to ship me his lol. What sizes are needed? So I would just look or ask for "plugs" in the correct size?

Wait a second arent there 2 holes on either side of the lid that are different sizes, one being smaller than the other? Some one else said they were a different size on this post too I think.

I used two 5/16" plugs and two 3/8" plugs. The small ones go up front and the bigger ones go in the back.

Thats for the 01-04 spoiler. Its been a while since I have seen a 99-00 spoiler, so im not 100% sure on the sizes for those years.

yeah.... hole sizes aren't the same for all years, so its 1/2" and 3/8" for 99-00.
