After ripping off my stock spoiler (it was broken anyway) I'm left with a few dime-sized holes in the rear "deck".

After thinking about this for a bit... how am I going to fill in those holes? I'd hate to use that much body-filler in 1 space. Any reccomendations? Welding would be tough with the space behind the hole being as tight (and flammable) as it is.

Clue me in!

 

Buy a used TII spoiler.

 

Yeah... just put another spoiler on in its place...

 

I'd also like an answer to the filling in question. Right now my car's been bastardized with a Supra style wing. I'm hoping to scrape money together to get it painted, and I was gonna go with a naked *** on the back, cause I think it looks pretty clean (plus it's cheaper than buying one ). I was debating using JB weld to hold a "filler piece" in place and having someone weld over it, but that would weaken the metal around the hole if someone decides to put a wing on the car at any point.

 

my car is white, i just got some white electircal tape and covered the holes. you could also buy a nut and bolt with a big washer, but that itsn't the most attractive thing

Ok guys, I prefer the no spoiler look. (I have access to another spoiler, but I don't want it)

I need a REAL SOLUTION if you guys can think one up.

 

Take it to a body shop and have them fill it, that's what I did

 

Any decent body shop can weld those holes up and repaint the deck...Probably $500 (or $300 US) woth of work.

 

Repainting the car myself. It pays to have a large shop, with the tools to do it right. So, I suppose the consensus is to back it up ( doesn't sound too easy ) and weld it. Fun fun.

 

I've been wondering thiss to, I put my double decker wing back on because I got sick of loooking at those holes

 

If you guys would like to learn about body work??

you could try soldering them.

 

Big Hole. I'll just back them and weld them.

Actually, the thought came to me.

Drill a hole on either side of it, put a peice of plate in there, rivet it, weld the plate in, grind off the rivet, and the holes will be small enough for filler.

 

wELD IT?

 

You could glue that piece in instead of riveting.
Go to any body supply place and ask for some panel
bonding adhesive lots of companies make it now.

 

Make some small plates and get some one to gold them (with a screw driver etc) while you Mig the holes up, Grind it flat and get it painted.

Then you have the piece of mind the filler is'nt going to fall out or sink leaving your origanal holes.

Either use a Mig to weld the Holes or 2 Component Structural Bonding Adhesive. Norton AND 3M make excellant products. Then fill and sand and Paint.

 

dude your a moron and your gonna rust your car out
