i was quoted 250 but i got it down to 225..so that sounds about right..since theyd have to weld the holes off and repaint the whole piece

the cheapest solution would be to find a hatch at the junkyard that didnt have a factory spoiler...this involves a lot of luck tho

Sounds about right I guess. I was planning on just taking off the spoiler and putting some plugs on the hole. Figure I just wait till I get my 98+ front and rear end conversion done and have the whole thing repainted and have them fix the holes while they are at it.

If you don't plan on getting on any other body work done to your car I guess paying the 250 isn't so bad.

This is the reason why I am not going to remain wingless (currently covered with electrical tape), trying to find an oem itr wing to put on. (its cheaper and its functional )

or fill it up yourself and touch it up with paint. Thats if you know how to do it the proper way and blend it in.

I'm sure I might be able to refer you somewhere.

But on a GSR you'll still be left with the other 2 holes, one of which is fairly big

Electrical tape is tight. I painted it r-81 and it looks great to me, alot better than plugs IMO

Sell the wing and that'll help some of the cost of it.

I say do it the best way the first time so you don't regret it. Just pay the money for good work. It always works out best that way.
