Hey,
I just installed my spoiler today, and Im running to a problem here. Maybe you guys have experience on this. Do you guys know about the holes and those tiny nipple looking thing? LOL!!! How you guys remove that nipple piece, and also what you use to hide them holes? Let me know.
Thanks,
Dan

I don't think you are explaining it very well, so no one can figure out what the hell you are talking about ;) Do you mean that you installed an aftermarket spoiler, and you need to know what to plug your stock holes with?

Well that what I'm refering about it. Sorry for lack of info. Yes I had brought a aftermarket spoiler. When I took out the stock spoiler it had two empty holes and these two nipple looking thing. How I take the nipple looking thing out? Also what you guys or gals use to cover up those holes?

Well, my aftermarket spoiler is being installed right now actually, so i'm not sure what these "nipple" things are that you are referring to. I am just going to pick up plugs at Home Depot or something to put in the holes (way cheaper than having them welded shut), and i'll probably paint them the same color as my car.

Well the two nipple thing are sticking out along with two empty holes. I really don't want the nipple thing standing out,cause it noticeable to see. I plug the two empty holes already. It just I want to know what peeps did to remove the nipple looking thing??

i know what you're talking about. not sure if i did it the right way, but i drilled out 2 little holes in my spoiler so the little things would fit in it. i have the WW one and it ended up cracking (although only 1 side of it did), but i think that was just a flaw in the spoiler.

So you mean you have those nipple looking thing out??? You know what I mean right?? There's two on each side of the stock spoiler holes and really noticeable. I really need to get this remove but I think these nipple looking thing are bolted rivet. I not sure what they are. I just need to get this remove and how.

I cut my nipples off (no pun intended).
I used a dremel tool and cut it off and grinded it until it was flush with the trunk.

no, i didn't get them out, i just drilled 2 small holes in each side of the wing so the little nipple things would sit inside of it. i tried to get them out but that seemed to be pretty much impossible. i was too afraid i would mess up and screw up the paint on my trunk if i tried to cut it, but thats cool that you did get it to work pokgai.

So it not really hard to get from drilling it then? I just don't want to create any damage on the trunk lid. If you know what I mean. LOL!.
