Removing Wing Spoiler on trunk

I did a search and did not find an answer for this.

If I remove the wing spoiler on the trunk can I just cover up the holes with a lip spoiler? Or will I have to take it to a bodyshop and have them sealed?

Hmmm, the lip spoiler goes on your bumper though, not the trunk.

I am talking about adding this lip spoiler:

I'm pretty sure he means this (the trunk lip spoiler):




You're thinking of the A-Spec front underspoiler.

To answer the OP's question, no. The lip spolier will not cover the holes left by the wing spoiler.

No, that lip spoiler will not cover the holes from the regular spoiler. The one you are referring to is the type-s spoiler. I just replaced my type-s spoiler with the regular one and i had two holes in the middle of the type-s spoiler. Had the body shop fill the holes and respray trunk lid. If you replace your spoiler you will have four holes, two on each side, which yes you will have to seal or water will leak into your trunk.
