Why not just unbolt it and put plugs in the holes it will cost you like $5.00 ...

Im with Curtisbeef there. Couldn't you do it yourself with bondo and some paint?

I asked about it way back when. The guy I spoke with said that they would have to weld holes close and primer/paint.

Yes! Put rubber plugs in your hatch just to be on the wingless bandwagon! Flame me if you want but I dont care that is retarded!

4 bills for doing wingless? thats too much. I'm sure most of the people one here did it them selves and sealed the hole with rubber unless you can shave it.

That is what I did. They took care of the wing holes, and the holes from the emblems.

Sorry man, i have no idea. My homeboi gunmetal_tegra does it all. Maybe you could ask him. Seach for his name though I don't think i spelled it correctly.
If you find anything that fits the holes it'll do until you get money.

yo man if you can remove the wing yourself that would save alot of money. i dont know where in socal ur located but theres a shop in chula vista, Nice N Easy, that does great body work. they filled the holes from the spoiler and also the emblem holes on my teg. i think it'll cost around 2-3 hundred something painted. hey its up to you if u want to spend some money. i think it'll be worth it

whatever man, I took my wing off in 2002 before there was a wingless "bandwagon" because TO ME lowered G3 Integras look way better w/o a wing. But I don't like doing irreversible mods to my car, so plugs went in. I got them from Lowe's.

4 bills to take the wing off of your car ? That is pretty retarded. You must have money to burn or something. do it yourself for like 5.00 $

once you remove the wing. there are 6 holes total. you could either shave the big hole that has the wire harness and the small hole that has the extra bolt. and plug up the 4 holes with a grommet. or just find grommets for all six holes. or shave the whole thing. but you can remove it yourself its pretty easy.

6 holes? i thought there are only 5??? 4 for the bolts and 1 for the brake light? anyways to response to skunkb18 post:

why dont u take the wing off yourself and take your car to acura bodyshop and tell them to shave the hole and paint it? i'm sure it'll be less than 4 bills.

I'm doing the same thing to my car, taking off the spoiler and shaving the holes. i'll post some pix when i finished with it. By the way, i dont use bondo, i use the fiberglass body filler instead.

yea, i can remove the spoiler out myself. thats easy. i called the acura body shop and they were asking 4 bills. i got few estimates on a few local shops and the cheapest i found was 3 bills. i think thats worth it. thanx for all the replies guys.
