Ryguy33 · December 13th, 2009, 07:54 PM

how much would it be to fill in the holes on my trunk were the spoiler fits and paint it?

MikeJones · December 13th, 2009, 08:39 PM

Well different body shops charge different and materials... find a friend who works in a bodyshop. best way

BakerFX4 · December 13th, 2009, 09:25 PM

Its going to vary but it probably be from 150-300. I could hook ya up if u were closer.

I know guys around there that do it and match the paint to the T and runs $50-75

I did my own but mine is black and the paint ain't that great so i would definably get it done buy a reputable place/person

mrbigjeep · December 13th, 2009, 10:00 PM

its gonna be a crap load...

but really the cheapest quote i got was 250 i think

Ryguy33 · December 13th, 2009, 11:20 PM

damn..well it was worth the thought.
ill just have to drive arround with holes in my trunk

Lefty · December 14th, 2009, 08:52 AM

An average shop....about $150-$250 would be my guess.

BakerFX4 · December 14th, 2009, 10:18 AM

Yeah id be worried about a 50-75 dollar job. That would HAVE to be a single stage. It will match but its not base coat, clear coat. Not possible to make money on it for less that 150 and it be done right!

Go to an auto parts store get some Toyota body pins (they were the thinnest ones I found). Go to the store and get fusion spray paint that bonds with plastic. Spray the body pins with a color closest to your car color and put them in when they dry. Use some silicone sealant to seal it up for leaks and you'll be good to go. Had a guy around here with a white stang do it on my advise and it looked pretty good. You can only tell if you get up close. It will hold you over until you can save to get it fixed professionally.

This is what we did with my buddies 01 cobra, didn't look bad at all.

casper gt · December 14th, 2009, 08:13 PM

I also did the body plug thing & it worked fine for me as well (being a 2000 though, I don't have to worry about leaks)

BakerFX4 · December 14th, 2009, 08:32 PM

I dont have to worry about leaks either being mine is a 2000.

WAIT...... I didnt have to worry anyway. I filled the holes and stuck a 03 cobra spoiler on!

Teknicz · December 14th, 2009, 08:49 PM

well not for nothing but a few friends of mines that took off the spolier from their car got like a oval head bolt that fits in the holes, paint it wit spray paint and the nut the screws from the inside and barely cost more that 10 dollars, the body pins what the guys talked above also works fine

wouldnt work because where the sopiler was it moved arround alot becuse the person before me didnt have it tightened all the way and it bumped arround. and all the paint is rubbed off.
