wingless?

Do you guys think i should go wingless? I have an 04' wrx (silver) with 17" BBS RGR's. I really like the way the stock wrx wing looks but im startin to feel the low profileness of the wingless. any opinions.

wingless looks hot on the non bug-eyes.
I cant stand the bug-eyes or the GC8 styles without wings

How would i go about doin this? Is it better to plug the holes or do something like a trunk swap? Also what kind of $ would it cost to have a body shop do it? Thanks guys.

I think there is a trunk swap thread some where, if not here than *******.
Dont know how much $$ it would run at a shop but Im thinking if you get button head cap screws with rubber or nilon washers, paint them body color, and use them to plug the holes it would look good at a glance.

I bet the holes would look doo doo even if i did paint them over. Im probably gunna rock the wail tail because its a status symbol and im proud of it. When i upgrade to an STI though i am gettin rid of that wing.

Im rockin the whale tale on my 05 sti! IMO its STI, chargespeed or nothing at all plus if i ever had to push it.....it acts like one heck of a handle (not likely) but i was considering wingless with a cf trunklid. love that look also.

filling the holes and painting the trunk would probably be close (enough) to the price of buying a CF trunk. I personally like wingless and wish I didn't have a wing but I plan on trading it in soon so it's not worth the effort now.
