What did you guys use to plug up the holes, and could I get said plugs at a hardware store like Home Depot?
Also, how long did it take to remove the spoiler, and how difficult was it? |

I used the plastic caps, it was a pack from Autozone I believe... very easy to remove.. (the 2 post at least) its just 4 bolts after popping off the black cover on the underside of the trunk This post has been edited by Jaws4God: Sep 21, 2008 - 1:21 PM -------------------- ~Daniel~ No Longer Celica Owner.. moved on to a 03 WRX-EJ207

Thanks guys, that helps. The clear sticker is an idea, except the holes would be sort of visible. I just tried to get the cover off and couldn't, I guess I'll have to pry harder.
There's no way I could damage the paint by taking it off and then putting it back on if I decide I don't like the look? This post has been edited by RickJamesBish: Sep 21, 2008 - 2:27 PM |

the part about the plugs is the best idea. I was going to do that but ended up going to Home Depot and getting 1.5" flat bolts and painting those black (like my car) with a gloss and got washers, I just screwed them in. They were sliding, so I got tape and taped 1/4 of the bolt up top with a thick layer to keep it from moving around, in fear of water getting in and such. Might end up just welding them, dunno yet. Good luck.
