Quick simple question. Where did you guys get your plugs. I just went to autozone and home depot for 2 /15 and 1/7 rubber plugs, but to no avail. What did you use and where did you get em

MRKsD3 · March 2nd, 2011, 06:16 PM

Home Depot... Two 5/16, two 3/8 steel hole plugs... They come flat already so you won't have to sand it down to flatten it (plastic plugs). Then painted them with touch up paint.

Really? hum, I'll go back tomorrow after I get my pay check

BTW. I ended up getting the spay version of the touch up. mainly because it was .60 cents cheaper that the small touch up pen. Will it still work fine?

MRKsD3 · March 2nd, 2011, 06:30 PM

It should work... Only those little suckers are so damn small, I had a hard time painting them! There wasn't enough room to hold it...

Maybe get painter's tape... Line the plugs in place in the middle of the tape so you can spray over it...

Too bad you dont have a 99/00 so you could move your spoiler back a little

Mach Stang · March 2nd, 2011, 06:33 PM

could i just set them on a paper towel, spray, then Plug? an Idea

@stallion - I happy with mine or none. And I'm with my stock wheels over yours :sticks tongue out

As soon as summer hits and im back working full time....some 03/04 chrome cobras are coming!

MRKsD3 · March 2nd, 2011, 06:38 PM

Those plugs are so light, simply letting them sit on a paper towel might just blow them away... The have to be somewhat securely held down while being sprayed.

MRKsD3 · March 2nd, 2011, 06:40 PM

Don't get me wrong, 99-00 wings do look good moved back...

Mach Stang · March 2nd, 2011, 06:40 PM

are they paper thin or something?

i've never actually seen a pic of them moved back actually

MRKsD3 · March 2nd, 2011, 06:44 PM

not bad. Id never be able to drill into anything on my car though lol

MRKsD3 · March 2nd, 2011, 06:48 PM

I could never get used to seeing hole plugs on my trunklid, plus the nasty marks/scratches the spoiler left, I just had to put the wing back on...

lol...on my new v6 you'll be hardpressed to see the plugs on the dark blue...bwahahaha

MRKsD3 · March 2nd, 2011, 06:53 PM

This is how mine turned out... I don't know if you could see the plugs very good in this pic but oh well... Lol not een sure if the spoiler marks are visible either... I'm looking at it through my iPhone right now!

Hope this helps!

Mach Stang · March 2nd, 2011, 06:54 PM

I have to make the pic larger but yeah. You scratches are a little more extreme then mine though
