plugging holes in trunk with wing removed

Wanted to ditch the wing for a bit and see how i like it. before possibly having wholes filled in and trunk painted...thought mabye there was somewhere to pick up some plugs or some sort for the wholes that would be in trunk? I could use electrical tape - but trying for a not so ghetto look... any ideas?

i took my wing off but only for repair. stupid rust under wing. i am putting my wing back on once it is fixed. you can tell a difference on the highway with and without the wing.


My $0.02. + it just doesn't look the same.

Just leave them open if you're going to eventually have them filled.

GL with the plugs. Autozone does have them but punk *** kids like to screw around with them. I went to a party awhile back and it was raining and I came outside to find out someone took the vinyl stickers off the wholes and my trunk was sopping wet. FAIL.
