You are doing this car a favor! Man that blue + neon must look hideous in person.

Looks like the car finally find the right owner. /thumbup

This is like a story of a man who rescued an abused puppy. Seems she is coming around, behaving better, becoming the companion you always wanted. We are glad to see someone taking care of the abused.

Now scrap that wing and get a nice, subtle spoiler or run without one. That wing is absurd.

If I were you I would swap that trunk to a wingless CF trunk to match your CF hood.

That wing is only going to attract unwanted attention when you're driving around.

I hear you guys. It just is already plugged from the stock wing and I don't really want 8 more plugs. So I am going to keep it for now. This vvvv comment is what I said above, I agree with both of you guys tho.

Brake Cleaner should take care of that.

I think the 5AXIS rear spoiler might be able to cover up all the plugs, without needing to drill any extra holes. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Looks clean and simple.

Looking forward to your progression :thumbsup:

It would cover the factory holes I believe. But then I still have 8 holes from this aftermarket wing that was on it when I bought it. I am going to, soon I hope, go to a few vinyl shops and see if they have a vinyl the same or very close to the factory asphalt color so I can just cover the holes that way, its an old evo/wrx trick. ha.

I do like the idea of a carbon lid too I just don't like the idea of that price tag right now. haha.

Thanks!
