Default going wingless

has anyone have any issues with people peeling off your tape that covers the holes, or removing plugs that you put on it? I want to go wingless, but I am afraid some jacka** is gonna come and remove them when it's pouring rain one day. for those that have done, how did you do it?

Couldn't you either weld them shut, or fiberglass them closed - and not worry ?

I have had to use the plugs before and I never had any issues. dont worry about it. unless your a jerk where you live and people hate you. THEN worry about it.

The only plug you would have to worry about is the harness plug.

IIRC, the 4 outside plugs (2 on each side) that attach the spoiler to the rear hatch are placed over the sill where water runs through anyway.

That's what I did to my 97 gsr, and it came with ls mesh wheels also, so lots of people rev on me thinking its an ls.

They probably don't think you have an LS at all, especially if you still have the VTEC emblem still on there. The "LS mesh" wheels weren't initially available on the LS model at all. They were, however, available for the GS-R. Maybe that's why they do that (or maybe they are just ricers ).
