I had a MazdaSpeed spoiler on my rx-8, decided to take it off and sell it, now of course it has those 4 holes in the trunk, I have a question. How much would it cost and where would i go to get them filled and painted? Also i have searched but cannot figure out if I get a factory spoiler if it will fit in the already predrilled holes w/o another installation and also if it will cover the holes up that are already there, thanks for help!!!

 

From what I could gather from reading other fellow members' experience, swapping the OEM spoiler to MazdaSpeed, the holes don't match up and I believe a couple holes will be exposed. I could be wrong though.

 

I'm going from mazdaspeed to OEM so i should be good covering holes correct?

 

I personally think if your mind is set on going with the OEM spoiler, then order it. Once it comes in, take the MazdaSpeed spoiler off and place the template on your trunk to see if it will cover the holes. If it does cover the holes, see if you might have a problem with water getting in and make your best judgement from there. I am just going recalling off of memory and I can't be 100% sure. Maybe a fellow member can give you better insight.

 

I do belive the holes are the same.

I want your spoiler. Shall we swap?

 

cover the holes and go wingless. looks a lot cleaner on the 8 IMO. Should cost around 2-300 to have the holes welded shut, ground down and the deck lid painted over.

 

yes the OEM factory holes are the same as the MS holes. A body shop near me quoted me $250 to get the holes filled in and painted as well because Im thinking of selling my CF MS spoiler.

 

ill trade you and give you my stock oem spoiler

 

I will trade a factory spoiler for a MS one... Mine is winning blue...
PM me...

 

Plus I'll give you $60 to get it painted if you have a carbon fiber MS wing in good condition.... I would need pics first...

 

pm me if you need a stock wing, just pay for the shipping ang packing materials and you can have it! it's gray, btw...
