de-badging & Wing
Hey all,
In a bit of a predicament as I want to remove the spoiler and badges off my RX, but I heard that if you de-wing the car you need to spray to whole boot, to cover the holes which I'm guessing is expensive?? Would it be better to get a GX boot and use that (if it fits) or are there other ways? Cheers.

If you can get a GX boot cheap then do that. You need to check if you have a brake light in your back window. If not you need to put one in or you run the risk of a sticker.

cost me $500 to get the holes welded up and the boot lid resprayed. And that was in a different colour to my car, matching it was a bit more.. I ran around with silver duct tape on my silver boot lid for ages, but most ppl just run the rubber grommets.
It will cost you $400 for a gx bootlid, unpainted from Subaru. Good luck finding one second hand. I don't have a high-mount brake light in mine either, but it is on my "things to do list" |

yeah, you can buy it as a part from Subaru, or i think Repco sell one that fits pretty well. Its just about getting the wiring that powers the brake light in your now removed spoiler and sending it thru the parcel shelf from under your boot and connecting positive and negative..
