Ok Guys, I know I could have ordered the car, and been patient and waited 8 weeks for delivery, but I wanted it when I wanted it and got 98% of what I was looking for.
I wish I didn't have a rear spoiler, and a fake hood scoop. I'm thinking of unbolting the spolier, and filling the holes with 5/16 steel rivets (I have the Crafstman rivet tool). I'd actually have to rivet a loose nut on the underside of each hole so that the rivet grips. I'd also have some silicone sealmaker around each rivet to ensure water-tightness, and then I'd paint the rivets with touch-up paint so that they blend in with the trunk lid.
If it turns out well, I'd also consider unbolting the fake hood scoop and doing the same thing, except that I'd use aluminum rivets to avoid any electrolysis issues.
Your comments , suggestions, counter-indications and alternatives are welcome!
