When you guys removed your stock spoilers on your cars, what did you guys use to clean/remove the scratches from the old spoiler? Also, what did you use to plug the bolt holes? Thanks!

mag m105 w/surbuff pad, followed by mag m205 with black pad, followed by glaze of your choice, followed by sealant of your choice, topped with wax (not cleaner wax) of your choice [Smile]

body colored (paint to match) door panel plugs from any auto parts store can be found for filling the holes.

Use clay bar and it'll remove all that gunk and grime, will really clear it up

Lowes or Home Depot have push plugs or what ever they're called, that that I bought and fit perfectly. They have them in categories by car... so check under "Ford"

You can sand them down flat and paint.

Thanks for the tips guys. I'll try clay bar since I have it already. If not, I'll try some rubbing compound or something along those lines. I'll check out the automotive plugs at home depot/lowes. I've tried plastic interior panel plugs before on my old 96 but it never sealed the holes and it leaked water.

did you try using a sealant? im sure that wouldve taken care of the issue. personally, the only way to go is to have someone weld the holes in and just paint/blend and clear the panel.
