I know this is an old thread but...
Possibly attempting this wing delete this Saturday. Already bought the OEM hole plugs from the dealership (thanx so much for the part number in this thread, dealer had no idea what I was talking about until I had the part number). Also got a can of graphite gray spray paint and goo gone.
I'm determined that this will work out and I'll save some $$$ by avoiding Southern MS body shops who are clueless when it comes to imports.
To the ones that did this: Did you guys put any sort of adhesive/sealant around the hole plugs when you cover up the holes or did you guys just smash them in there?
Also, just out of curiosity, what the heck did you guys do with your removed wings? I was going to just display it in my house terrace just for novelty's sake.

I have mine in my closet. I've tried to sell it locally, but no luck. If you wanna buy it and display it next to yours, I'll sell it for cheap! Hahaha. You can start a collection!

^thanx for replying so quickly. I called a nearby body shop and I will drop by to get an estimate for the work.
If the price doesn't disgust me, I might go that route so that my trunk looks super clean.
lol and thanx for the offer, I won't need another wing. My neighbor already asked me if I was going to sell the wing. He has a civic so I might sell it to him to see the results... should be comedy if he manages to get it on his car.
BTW, your RA is freakin' retarded clean. If I could cut and paste all the mods you did (wheels, exterior, etc.) to my RA, I'd be set.
