I was in a thread before and i asked a company to make caps for the wing holes. They said that a member already figured out a solution for this and info would be posted shortly. For some reason i can't find the thread! Has anyone heard anything about this

 

i hope your not talking about ikona

 

yeah i was wondering the same thing before...want my wing off but without ugly holes..

 

bump

 

I want my wing off too. I hope someone can find this info.

 

ha yea i think we all do.. but paying $300-400 isnt worth it... Id be happy with some plugs then when im ready to sell it i can just put the wing back on.

 

are you thinking of this https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/appearance-48/so-you-removed-ugly-front-tag-now-you-have-ugly-holes-132056/ its the same concept for removing holes on trunk

 

Get some vinyl tape from local hardware store, cut into fun shape, then cover over top.

or

Goto a local machine shop, show them the size of the holes, tell them to make you something to plug them out of aluminum, then get them anodizied. That's what I want to do with mine. Except I am a machinist, I just want to figure out if I just want to make them plain, or do something different...

 

search junkyards, took me a year and a 3 hour drive one way to get mine. Definately worth it though. Caps/plugs look cheap.

 

were looking for plugs.. but that would be alright.. i would just worried about the touch paint looking like **** and not matching

 

im looking for plugs also

 

Yes it is worth it to spend money to get it done the right way

 

Ok in the autobody would we call them xmas tree clips. You can pick them up at autozone for a few bucks. Paint to match and push them in.

 

what would they be called at autozone tho im sure no ones gonna call them that....

 

i'm tryin to find you a pic. I should start paintin these things and sellin it to you clowns on here lol

 

lol youd make money like that guy that made those fucken carbon fiber side stickers for car and now everyone has that bs on their car like it makes it luxury and the funny thing is people try to come up with different ways of putting them on ive seen all kinds of angles on those things

 

They have a nice smooth top on them. scuff them with a scotch brite and paint to match. This is what i used to plug my front plate holes

 

i know what those are...do they come in different sizes tho?

 

Yeah the ones i used for my plate were tiny. But we get them from out autobody supplyer. If need be trim the head down nicely

 

i think one of the holes is a little bigger than the other so i hope i can find the right size

if this works youll replace captain planet as my hero

 

lol ok. But if you cant find the right sizes pm me and ill send you the right ones.

 

gonna be alot of ghetto cobalts driving around...............

 

wont be ghetto if you cover the hole right and put a lil 3m adhesive on it so it holds in place like the wing is now should be a nice temp fix plus if you want you can go back to your wing also....

i think it will be a nice fix for people who want to go wingless you know how many people are in that wing trading thread?!?!?

 

i just plugged my holes last weekend if i remember tonight ill take pics of my car and the things i used. i got all my supplies at the autozone

 

u hardly will notice.. theres a good bit of srt guys that do it.. u dont even really notice them
