Well, turns out that the s281 spoiler isnt a direct fit on a 94 Cobra... the mounting holes closest to the back windshield are exposed. I have 2 options:
1. Get the holes filled by a body shop and painted... how much you think this would cost?
2. Put 2 small rubber hole fillers in, might look a little janky but oh well.
You guys have any other suggestions?
BTW, big thanks to John (HungryHippo) for the shock/strut/spring install on Saturday.

This isn't the one for 281 is it? I thought that was for a 00GT?

No this is the s281 spoiler for 94-98. The 99+ spoilers are much different.
A body shop said they didnt want that kind of business? How lame is that... can't imagine someone turning down business, no matter how big or small. I am asking about this all over the place, so I will see what comes out. Those rubber things shouldnt be too hard to find, gonna go to the Depot after work and a few auto shops.

I went to all the auto shops around here and Orchard supply, lowes, and home depot and could find any? Maybe I just missed them Temporarily I have electric tape over the holes.

Whats up John.... suspension rides great, just the right height too... not too low, but noticeable. Got the Cobra's put on yesterday too, soon as I get my digi back from the Ex I will get some pics up.
ANYBODY OUT THERE WITH A BLACK V6 OR GT THAT WANTS TO TRADE TRUNKLIDS (I HAVE 94 COBRA) LET ME KNOW.....

SO I found the plugs that I was lookin for at Orchard, they worked magically. Anyone that has holes in the trunk, I recommend them.
Nobody wants to take me up on the trunk lid swap? Heard these Cobra ones add 5-10 rwhp... ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
