Getting rid of the airplane wing

Ive decided to ditch the GT wing! I really liked how it looked in the start and then i started to notice that from some angles it just looks disgusting. My question is though, there are 6 holes drilled in there altoghether. I dont want to paint it just yet so i was wondering what i could use to cover the holes for a while until i get enough money to repaint it? I was thinking maybe i could find some plugs or something of that nature to cover the holes. The holes are not too thick either, i think like 3/8 or something.

DAm.n you went and drilled holes and then had second thoughts that sux...oh well...i say kept it on till you can get it fixed or get a new trunk lid get the CF one and paint it(this is what i would do) bondo or fixing it NEVER looks the same you will always be able to tell something was there

I would have just left the bottom brackets on and taken the wing part off till u have the $$.

That is the reason i havent put my alluminum wing on, Its up for sale now & no body has the money for it.... boy i could justfor buying that thing. i think our cars only look good with either the stock wing or the ktr2 wing But thats just me[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
