As far as i know all the holes are the same size. An R wing is a direct bolt-on to your trunk.

only the comptech R wing will cover up the big hole..there's only one hole that i believe will show, and that's the bigger one where the wires run through..

When I put OEM ITR wing on my 98 GSR it left 2 holes exposed.

The ITR wing will bolt on using the 4 small holes. The GSR wing had an extra stud holding down the wing on the drivers side and the wires went thru the hole on the passanger side.

you need to get the comptech type r wing for a gsr, thats the only one that will fit perfect and cover up all the holes, i also believe you can get them with or with out a brake light also
