S203 Wing to WRX Boot
 
I have a bit of an idea,

Instead of filling up the unused holes to suit the 4-hole S203 wing brackets - and thus making the whole boot somewhat useless when I decide to get rid of the wing and boot, what material would I need to possibly fab up and underlying support piece, that will hide the hole and cover the existing S203 ends?

I would want it to be around 5mm thick, and have the same shape as the bottom of the S203 bracket but have enough width to extend along to the other end - in turn covering up the holes along the way.

Heres a pic of how it will look like now:

and a pic I found on the net that gave me the idea for my setup:

Maybe a couple of small pieces of persplex in the shape of
the last pic.

Not sure if you can get it in black though, might have to use the
fake carbon fibre stick on stuff to hide the og colour of the persplex
spacers.

no im thinking some kind of material like hard rubber, that will also seal moisture and be kind to the paint.

clark rubber for a sheet of thin rubber then trim to size?

yeah natural insertion rubber is the go. Same stuff they make 4x4 mudflaps from. 3mm should be heaps.
