So how many people have made the effort to get the holes FILLED not slapped some colour matching tape on. Anyone can go spoilerless and tape it up

yes but on the filp side it gives u the option to refit the spioler if u want to and not have to drill the holes again . some people are very 50/50 when it comes to spoilers . it looks cool off for 2 weeks then they wanna put it back on , so tape is ok imo i left mine open on my old car . holey moley

Here are some pictures of my V5 STi at Abingdon a few weeks ago. I had the spoiler removed and holes filled by RS Bodyworx in Poole - Andy did a very nice job and also did a deal over the spoiler - which he put straight onto his own car!

Please don't shoot me down folks - I do apologise if this has been answered before but...

I have a 2004 wrblue blobeye that at the mo has the great big STi type rear spoiler (recently fitted by previous owner) in place of the factory low-level item, using no extra bolts (as I cringe and close the boot very carefully!). What will be the best, most cost-effect way of me going wingless?
