Wingless
What are all the wingless guys using to cover up the holes in your trunk? Besides filling the holes and getting it painted to they make color matched lamanited stickers.

I have a TB VIII...
1) When I used the black vinyl stickers (any vinyl/sign making shop can get you these) they color matched fairly well... I am a perfectionist, so I'd still say this solution is a "10 footer"
2) My long term solution... went to a junkyard, found a balck 02-03 lancer trunk that came without a wing stock, buffed the "new" trunk lid, and installed it... the color match is 100% on (it is the same paint code, lancer to evo (at least for the black))... you can do this for any 8 or 9 trunk lid... the fitment is 100% on... the only catch, if the paint is faded on the junkyard piece, or if your paint is faded... it will obviously not color match 1 for 1.
Good luck!
