Filling in Trunk Holes
 
Hey, I took my wing off and am wondering the best way to fill in the holes? Bondo?

I would spot weld the holes, grind down the welds down then do a small layer of filler(bondo) to make the surface smooth.

Rubber Pluggs, Vinyl Stickers Or pro body shop to fill em.

OR THE MANS WAY OUT! DUCT TAPE!

Whatever you do please don't use plugs. They look horrible. Get some adhesive vinyl that matches the color of your car.

I wouldn't do anything permanent like welding the holes unless you are positive you don't want to sell the car for a while. I'd probably use plugs or tape.

Ive seen some color matched plugs - that are close while not perfect. My car is black, so its easy for me. Id think you could settle with something close and it would be acceptable.

best option u have. vinyl is easy to put on and easy to remove and u wont have to worry about the adhesive damaging the paint.

if u really want to permanently fill the trunk holes, then try to find a swap with a RS or regular lancer that fits the evo.

agreed^^^ vinyl stickers is the easiest/fastest solution. Wont kill your pain and if you ever want to put the wing back on you can.
