R34 Boot Holes

[Charles89]

I've recently bought a set of Nismo wing stay for my R34 coupe.

After taking off the stock spoiler, I realised there's an extra set of holes on the boot lid. The stock + nismo wing stay only uses 2 set of holes but theres another hole in the middle of the 2.

At the moment, it's got some sort of plastic clips on them, and I'm just wondering what are they and what it's for. And the best way to cover it.

I was thinking to get some rubber plugs from Clark Rubber. I definitely aren't going to get the holes welded and resprayed.

[jrm]

The factory wing uses the middle holes, they have a sort-of clip that goes from the spoiler into the hole - probably to help locate it, or lock it down or something. Either way, yeah - you're going to want to put some sort of proper plug in there to prevent water entering your boot. I'm sure a body-shop (or someone on here) might be able to give you some clues.

Also - the nismo wing stays - they're supposed to have plastic pieces that sit around the bottom of the stay and cover up any of the holes anyway?

Are you missing these?

[Charles89]

Ohh, I'm guessing they must have snapped on the stock wing stay. Think I might take them out and put some plugs into them.

As for the covers, I have them but I think the spoiler looks a lot better without the covers

get some touch up paint and paint whatever you use to fill it up with it? would look dodgy but you wont really notice it unless you look up close or you could just put a cf vinyl under the nismo stands to make a shape?

[Charles89]

Yeah, I think I might go with the touch up paint idea. Where's the best place to get some?

[R34P3R]

ask the guys who are putting your kit on to just paint it for you while they have it

[NA_Goodness]

Otherwise Nissan should have touch up paint in your colour

[Charles89]

Any ideas how much it would cost? Like a really rough idea?

[R34P3R]

should be about $15 for a little bottle the size of nail polish

looks awesome

but is that illegal in melbourne? i mean the Nismo wing stay

[Charles89]

Cheers

I'm pretty sure it would be legal.... Because it's a factory item....

And plus, I though the only reason why after market spoiler isn't legal, is when they stick out further than the width of your car? Because apparently it can hurt someone when you hit them with your car lol

Here's a pic of it from behind:

Just wondering, does anyone know how big the middle hole will be if I take out the plastic clip thingys?

As in... Will the hole be just as wide as the plastic clips? or will it be smaller, like the front and back holes?
