ok so those of you who saw my original post on another forum would have seen that GOD AWFUL wing that was on my EX when I bought it .

well I finally took it off yesterday and it looks a LOT better, but now I have another problem, as in...4 gaping holes in my trunk where the brackets were. I'm looking for a new trunk but until then, any good Ideas to keep the rain out?" keep in mind I'm in germany so my options are limited.....

 

anyone????

 

are you buying a new trunk soon? i have seen a car around my area that put some something over where they had holes from a wing, i think they used bondo. if its very temporary just throw some duct tape over those holes, lol.

 

I'm looking for a new one , but like I said I'm in germany, on a US army post, so it's slim pickins , put some duct tape underneith but not sure how well thats going to work.

 

Put the bolts through the holes that were holding the wing on, and put some caulking on them

 

well you can use some simple VINYL like for stickers.... if ya know of any sign shops or someone that cut vinyl im sure they got some scraps or if ya want to be CLOSE to matching you can always pay a few bucks for some pieces to cover up the holes...
OR some stickers, some tape, and some touch up spray paint to match your car... put the sticker around the holes..... tape off the area..... and paper also around so ya dont paint the car and just paint over the stickers to match close enough and remove the tape/paper...


another way which i have on my 94civic for the rear trunk emblem missing i use a HOT GLUE GUN..... just wipe down the area INSIDE and outside area of the holes and simply put the glue in the holes around the area. it seals preaty dam good...... never had any leaks.... and when you want to do a more PERMINANT FIX just pull the glue off. alot beter than some epoxy since it can come right off.

 

I happen to have a glue gun, think I'm going to try that, thanks for the advice everyone

 

I wouldn't use a glue gun, it's best to use some form of caulking or sealer even if it's a temp fix.

 

aaaaaa worked fine for me.

hot glue stickers preaty good, i use it all the time for misc stuff....

best part about it is it can be removed clean... epoxys and silicones can be very hard to remove.....

but heres an idea for ya... if ya still have the wing... find someone with a civic like yours maybe even same color and trade them

 

isn't there already enough ugly in this world?
