Hey,

I looked at the knowledge base, but wanted to see if there are any other options <img src="graemlins/spank.gif" border="0" alt="[spank]" /> .

Just removed my rear spoiler- ground effects for my 1986 IROC to install my new edQuay spoiler.

Two issues:

The first are the penny size holes left behind from the removal of the spoiler-ground effects on the upper rear fender next to the deck lid. This is a race car and I would like the to just use filler?

The second is the spoiler conflicts with the rear deck pins that replaced the latch. I need to move them 1 3/8 inches over. These are also penny size holes, but the new holes will most likely stress the old pin holes. Can filler be used? Is there another way to hold the deck lid down (Latch will not work since chute mount required removal of it)?

Thanks,
David

Thanks for the input!

Yup, that's what I saw in the database link. I really do not want to weld it (Not an easy endeavor to get it to a welder).

I was hoping that there is a good new tech filler that would work?

It a race car not a show car.........

Hey,

Well I took the advise on finding a welder. TRB from Roadtech (http://www.roadtechonline.com/) dropped by with his welder and filled the holes. We used small pieces of sheet metal held by a magnetic on the back side. A little grinding and filler and I will be there.

Already welded it up before I saw the solder idea. Have to say that's a neat one that would not require filler.

Ok her are some before and after picture of the work. Still need to grind the welds down though.
