I've decided I want the spoiler off the car. there are 2 screws from the trunk lid into the spoiler.

What viable/reliable options are there for sealing the holes left by the screws?

I'm in Illinois so we get a fair amount of snow as well - if that makes a difference.

(There is a 3rd brake light under the rear window as well so I'm not worried about the legality of removing the spoiler with it's brake light).

This is a 2002 Honda Accord SE

 

If you can find some domed 'lug plugs' and then some touch up paint to match your cars color. Use a bit of seam sealer to make them leak free.

Hardware store may have something similar.

 

You could sell the spoiler and buy another trunk lid from a pick-and-pull. You might even find one the same color and in good shape. Most of their cars are hit in the front.

 

Pick N Pull around here has a nice unique way of opening the trunks, usually with a crow bar.

 

Not a terrible idea. Would a 2001 trunk lid work? I know they changed a bit of the styling on these Accords after 2000, not sure if the trunk is the same.

 

Yeah, here too. Last weekend I saw a very nice CL trunk that would have been perfect if they had not used a crow bar on it. Luckily most Accords are not opened that way. I bought a spare trunk in my body color to use just in case I got tired of the spoiler. So far that hasn't happened.

One way to tell if the trunk will fit is to do a swap at the pick and pull. Before you buy it. If it works, good. If it doesn't then someone else has less work to do when they want a trunk lid.

 

So it's fairly easy to do then?
