Black electrical tape is doing a good job. Ppl said go to home depot and get plugs but i could never find the right sizes so I just gave up and left the tape. It has been holding strong for probably 4 months...

Sorry to be the one to say it but that looks tacky .

I like the wingless look but if your going to do it then have the holes shaved or atleast color match the plugs.

That is why cars that have wings from the factory should stay that way. This "Wingless" bandwagon drives me nuts.

It just makes me laugh that people would rather have black plugs in their trunk lid than a wing. Fill the holes if you want your wing gone.

I was OEM wingless and I put the stock GSR wing on. Its all about personal preference but it just seems the most everyone wants to do things right but they will fill there holes with black rubber after removing the wing.

or what if the wing on my car was faded? It looks better off then sitting there faded. I would rather have black plugs for 2-3 months so I can have the holes shaved then a faded ugly wing that from a distance you can't tell but up close makes the car look ugly.

I just used these little black plugs that came with my computer desk. Slapped them on and painted them to match, they actually look pretty good.
