The only way really is to do it properly - weld up the holes and re-paint the boot lid.

^^^ very nice

You need to have the rest of the car looking right for this look to work, alot of them just look like they're had their spoilers robbed by a saxo driver wanting it for their roof!

does look a lot better in the flesh, find that some colours look better with no wing than others too; don't know why?!?!?

car should be a bit lowered and have skirts and a deep lip to look right imo.............
