Black Celica, ftw. I bought $2 rubber plugs at Autozone, they blend in nicely. :D

The vinyl does look nice though. Good idea.

what exactly is left when you remove the spoiler..

On the small stock spoiler? 4 bolt holes, 2 on each side, and 4 nipples, 2 on each side.

The TRD spoiler that came factory, is more complicated. The body shop cleaned it up for me, but I believe there was a total of 8 bolt holes, 4 on each side, the same amount of nipples, and another hole on the driver side for the 3rd brake light wiring.

Great idea! i tried doing it with spraypaint 1st but the plugs were too small and leaked.

no nipples on the hombre mobile :D i did a similar thing except i used andy's spectra blue vinyl directly on the trunk, no plugs.

if you did like me and just cut a small circle then stuck it over the hole then yes someone could poke it out

02-11-2008, 10:27 PM
has anyone ever? would you recomend filling it with something?

plus mine has the nipples .. how do you get rid of those and what happens when you do.

hombredelassrta
02-11-2008, 11:05 PM
only way to get the nipples out is to snip them off and grind them down (normally requires repainting the trunk and if your doing that may as well have them fillin the holes properly.

no, noone has poked the holes in mine though a buddy who used clear vinyl, they poked his out

lol just run with the nipples its ok. or try to grind/cut them off as close to the car as possible, use stock touchup paint to paint the part that broke off and ur much better place then you were before :)

Nipples are a good idea :gap: + Vinyls. i should've done that instead of going to the bodyshop and paying almost $300 :bang:

so what if you cut the nipples off...will you still be able to mount the spoiler back on later if you decide to.

i would but i know being able to see the nipples will bother me. I want it to look as clean as possible, and i think theres a silver celica around my neighborhood that has the same thing done... looks good...but at the same time the nipples are noticeable.

Same with me! When I removed my OEM TRD wing a few weeks ago it left 8 holes, nipples, and a hole where the wiper was mounted. Now I see why shops want so much to fill the holes and repaint the hatch.

Jeff i'm doing wingless for daily and shoots but at shows i throw the wing back on. I like the cleaner less outlandish look for around town but at shows i want it to stand out :D I'll have the wing on at the meet i just have to go pick it up along with something else at the painter that i had candied to match the hood

no they are bigger, the visible nipple is plastic which i nipped off and theres a rivet under it, if you nip off the plastic it will reduce half its size

Hmm, that's not half bad. And it appears that it would keep water out of the holes too. I might do the same for a temporary solution. A shame I wasted $4 on plugs.

in no way, I believe the nipples where set there to mount the wing on faster while in production
