wing holes plugged

So I went wingless the other day and I had used vinyl tape but it just wasnt cutting it. So I just went ahead with plugs until i can get the trunk properly filled

My ingredients I picked up from autozone


Did a couple of coats of the paint and gloss


Used some silicone on them and viola!


Its not flat as vinyl tape and but i prefer the eyesore this way

i couldnt find the right vinyl....all i could have find was red electrical tape and red duct tape. I def wasnt gonna duct tape it and the electrical tape started to shrink and the widest i found was 3/4".... the color was off too...it just looked real shitty so I said eff it. My buddy has his gto plugged so I just decide to follow suit.

Yeah I agree def with you...if anyone have the coin or skillz to fill the trunk they should do it first thing or if they can get a wingless trunk that would be perfect. My spoiler left a circular mark where it was mounted and the paint is erroded ...it only noticeable only close up..but it urks me tho...my last touch up paint job i did really didnt come out to well so ill just wait for a bit...
