Spoiler question

Okay awhile back I removed the spoiler on my Ra now i am thinking about putting it back on but I wanna remove the brake light and fill that void that is going to be there...

Any ideas on what I can fill it with... would a layer or 2 of fiberglass be sufficient enough.. I'd rather not bondo it cuz thats alot of bondo and a possibility of cracking loose later...

any ideas would be appreciated....

Fiberglass and body filler. However, keep in mind that what you plan to do is illegal, unless you intend to install a 3rd brake light in your rear window.

Hmmm, some cars dont come with 3rd brake lights though. I have one sitting outside, guess it depends on the state you live in?

All cars come with 3rd brake lights as of whenever the law was enacted (sometime in the 90's). It's a federal law.
