99 spec rear spoiler mounting question

Does the 99 spec spoiler fit, or at least cover, the R1/R2 spoiler's mounting points? Any info appreciated.

TIA,
Chris

sorry to say... But some electrical tape depending on the color of your car will work wonders..

The stock R1 spoiler has 8 holes. I was under the impression the 99 Spec filled 4 of them at the least.

Covered not filled you mean right?

I heard 2 holes will be showing from the stock spoiler. The ones inner most and forward.

Like everybody said, the 2 inner forward holes will be visible possibly even the outline of the wing will be visible (like in my pic).

All of the other holes are re-used by the 99+ wing, and you will also have to drill 2 new holes for the 99 wing. Rather then getting the holes filled and the hatch repainted I will just wait until someone has their wingless VR rear hatch for sale.
