bogging the holes would be a disaster, youll have to weld them then get it resprayed.

I fibreglassed the bottom of the holes and bogged the top, sanded it nice and smooth followed by two coats of colour and 2 coats clear. Not a perfect job, buts looks decent. Will post some pics later.

Makes you wonder why nissan put these wings on the S13s, nearly everyone wants to take 'em off- it does make the car look cleaner.

The smart owner before me desided hed do it himself as well, took it off, filled the holes with steel wool and bogged over the top. Now needless to say it didnt work very well :lol: had to get dad to fix it. though he bogged it and well that cracked. so i got him to fix it properly got bits welded on, fiberglassed etc all fine now.

later

If you guys want it professionally done let me know, as a good mate of mine works for a historic car restorer. Needless to say their quality of work is phenomenal. They are located on the Central Coast and im sure i could get some sort of discount for you guys.. They will be welding and file finishing my bootlid (luckily i only have 4 holes from the typex wing :) )
