Making the Cobalt Wingless??

Did some searching on here, found nothing!

Was wanted to make my car wingless, just wondering how other people filled the holes in the trunk????

Also want to remove the front license plate, but will have holes there too.

Any pictures, comments, whatever will help thanks....

if you can find some one to swap trunk lids with that is the best way and usually cheaper but you have to find someone which isnt always easy

personally believe these to be the best. but if you have to remove it, then take it to a shop

I call bullshit on the search. There's tons of threads/posts on this. anyway, you have 3 options.
1. get a wingless trunk from another source (junkyard, trade, GM)
2. Take it to a shop and have them weld shut/repaint or do it yourself.
3. get plugs and color match paint them.


for the front, either get a new fascia, get plugs, or bondo them shut and paint over.

Thanks Everyone!!

That's what i was figuring maybe i'll have my buddys step-dad do it, he works at a body shop. Need the trunk painted anyways, some ******* at Wal-Mart in Colorado when i was there, threw an egg at my car and now i have a nice egg imprint... Gotta love the haters!!!

Going to have him paint my car here one day anyways, gotta think of a good paint scheme first... Been debating between ghost flames or something completely different. Have plenty of time tho..

could be bullshit on the search, this search engine or here is a lil shitty! i always try a lil before posting something like this cause you always have someone saying "Search for threads" but usually get a bunch of Bullshit when i search and get pissed off! Have found a lot of useful threads through it tho, must just be how people word things.

ok I can give you that, our search like to put new threads first instead of sorting by relevance, which is a PITA. Sorry for being a dick.
