wingless...

I know this has been talked to death about.. but i tried to search this and didn't find anything. i just recently removed the wing from my car ( and in the process put a nice little deep scratch in it)... but i was wondering what anybody has used to cover those wholes up that are made to look like crap when you take the wing off. any suggestions would be great... thanks for the help.

Get some blackout tape @ pepboys or vinyl and if you have a car color other then whats available get some OEM touch-up paint. cut into dime size circles, paint, then apply. I Have PB so the flatblackout tape @ pepboys has seemed to work for me w/paint. Will work for now until I cop the Du-Luck.

I have the non-sss wing and that was on there pretty solid, doesn't surprise me that you scratched your trunk. I dented mine a little.
