How are tiny holes you can barely see from ten feet away a good reason to keep a huge stupid wing you can easily see from a half a mile away?

because water gets down in your trunk next to your spare and causes rust...
If you want to go to all the trouble to take it off, you will need to get a new trunk lid. Then have it sprayed so that it matches your paint perfectly, then baked. All in all it's usually not cheap for that kind of work. Honestly, having a clean painted wing looks better than having a fcked up trunk lid when the rest of the car is nice looking.
Depends on how much it matters to you.
If you leave 4 holes in your trunk you're an idiot. Period (not referring to Dave22 as an idiot btw, I'm just saying...)

There are plenty of ways to plug the holes. Tell me you honestly think the only way to keep the trunk from rusting is getting a new trunk lid.
If you leave a big stupid wing on your trunk you're an idiot. Period.

Omgzorz like more full body shots???!!?!!
Toss that wing away, get oem lights, Don't worry about the exhaust yet. Sell your rims and get smaller rims (NOT ROTAS) don't exceed 17 inch. If that is a Catback exhaust then keep the piping and just get a smaller, OEM looking tip or like a 2 inch opening. You shouldn't get hassled with by the cops since that exhaust seems to not be to big. The Exhaust is the last thing I would do.
BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT the very first thing I would do is, go buy a pack of Vanillarooma and put 1 in your car.
p.s- DON'T buy squash, Vanillarooma > Squah

full body shots?? as in the car, right?
i'll look for a pic with a full view of my tat. i've got another on my lower back and the back of my shoulder. fckn things are addicting as hell. but i'm through getting them.
and as far as a/s/l (which kinda made me laugh a little, sorry)...i'm 27/female/drama beach(but i'm a cali girl...well, navy brat)...lol. although, i am married and i have kids....hahah! almost all the people that i meet don't think 3 kids came out of lil' ol' me. but they sure did, lmao.
for the wing...i didn't think it was that bad. i mean it's not ginormous or anything. maybe it just looks that way from that view? somewhere down the road i was thinking about getting a cf hood and trunk lid and doin' the black top thing...so i'm not really worried about it.
my ex-hubby owned a few cars...one of them was a sentra...and he replaced the stock wing with a grocery getter (yeah it was cool then, lol) and he used the vinyl decal sticker stuff and matched the color of the car and covered up the small holes. yes, that was ghetto...this is true. but it did work, and you couldn't tell unless you really looked at it.
i've lived at the beach for about 2 years now. since i've had that car, i've had a few people rev at me to try to get me to race.
but i have been lucky enough to not get pulled over. knock on wood. my hubby on the other hand has gotten tickets in it...for the exhaust being to loud, and modified...and for the tint. heeheeh.
the rims on the other hand, i definately wanted to get rid of before i even bought the car. white just isn't my forte...if yenno what i mean. i'd rather do the gunmetal deep lip kinda thing...that's just me. i was thinking about just powder coating them to save money.

Not really.
thanks for the tip
pretty much the reason why i joined the forums. i wanna get it done myself. don't wanna be one of those people that have other people do all the work for them. i wanna get my hands dirty too, yenno. no offense.
and before i got into this car, i owned a navigator, an xterra, and a bmw. so i pretty much need all the advice/tips and all that good stuff i can get.

you aren't going to find that here, seriously. For a forum that will def help with integras team-integra.net is the place to be. they have a lot of good info and diy articles.
integras are easy cars to work on though. ditch the tails pronto. I hate them things (but of course it's your car)
