Questions on replacing spoiler!

[Smurf.Fc3]

Hey guys, finally replacing my stock Si spoiler and the spoiler I will be using does not use stock mounting holes. It does although cover some stock holes. What are some ways to plug the holes left by the old spoiler? Also any recommendations for paint shops in the DE area? The spoiler is painted primer white while I drive an Aegan blue and would like to paint match the spoiler or I’m thinking of wrapping it carbon.

Unfortunately I don't have the answer's to your questions, but I'd love to see a pict of the spoiler you got and maybe a link to it? I absolutely hate the si spoiler and would love to get it replaced.

I haven’t received it yet but I bought it off of Vincent from 27Won. It’s 1 of 6 in the world, not sure if they’re looking into making it but I’ll attach some pics from the on the Redbull GRC coupe and from their wide body mock up

You got one of those!!!! I wanted one easy fixes would be a new carbon fiber trunk, Bondo to fill old holes, sand, and repaint whole trunk and since you're painting the wing it shouldn't be too bad.

Awesome! Thanks for the ideas! Yeah I had wanted one of these since I first saw it and I got a notification in the wide body thread about Vincent selling it so I hopped right on it! Def not cheap tho lol

Make sure you post pics when you get it and when you get it on with stock body!

I had the same situation. I had the trunk lid wrapped.

Wrapped in the same color or an accent you already had on the car? That’s a viable option.

If you're looking to DIY, bondo and paint pen with clear coat, very careful sanding, then polish.

To do that spoiler justice, if I were you I would spend the extra on having a reputable shop fill in the holes, and repaint. Your other option would be to hunt for a base model trunk in your color, they do appear at salvage yards occasionally

That’s what I’m in talks for right now. Hopefully this goes well haha

I have a locally body shop here in Newark DE taking the old spoiler off, welding and weather proofing old holes and paint matching the wing and painting the deck lid gloss black. All for ~$800 so not bad imo and I’ve seen his work first hand so I love his paint matches and handiwork. Super excited. I drop off everything on Thursday and should be able to pick it up in 3-5 working days
