dont know the answer to that one but i saw a black 99-04 sans wing last week and it looked flat sick. something about 94-04's that dont have a wing look more aggressive for some reason.
You could always try to find a decklid that dont have a wing on it at the bone yard.

I might do that as a temporary thing for next year....have one trunk lid with a wing and one without?

Most people use corks and just use touch up paint to color them a few times and no more leaks.

Do IT! Then when you pull the wing off, fill the holes and spray the car especially your front bumper. If you come back up to the fort, i'll recommend my painter. He has sprayed my front and rear bumper, and this spring, he sprayed my hood inside and out. He does amazing work.

Depending on how everything goes there is a possibility that the car will be gettin painted for free this winter! One of the perks of school is free labor!

But Luke....your guy does do some incredible work..he did a hell of a job on your car.

It's not bad.. I like the 99+ cars without a wing better but not sure on a SN95.. I might try it on mine too and see how it looks

IMO, the look is better on a 99-04, but it doesn't look bad. It just makes the rear end look bland to me. I think the sharper edges on the new edge make it more doable because the curvier aero makes it all blend together.

Yeah, but that's duct tape.
