Not a perfect solution but a solution that does not require painting/ patching.

not familiar with body shop costs but for $200 couldnt you just have a shop patch and paint it?

Patching then painting the trunk would prolly be a bit more. I'd also make sure they welded the holes up instead of cutting corners and using body filler by itself.

You didn't get popped for your wing...you got popped for your tint.

Yeah, your taillight tint is what is getting you pulled over.

A carbon fiber trunk would solve the hole problem. So would getting the holes filled and painted. You're still going to get bothered by the police for your tint.

I would say between $300 and $500 for a quality job. There is no such thing as a good deal when it comes to body and paint work. You get what you pay for.
