As far as I know thetre is no aftermarket wing that will cover the holes in the fenders. Kaminaris wing uses two/three of the five stock holes on the trunk but you have to bore up two of your own.No wing uses the holes on the fenders though I think...so they still have to be welded shut and painted over to make it look good.

no there are none. even if you get the WW 3-piece (the one that kinda looks like the high spoiler on the 3000gt's) you will still hafta fill holes. the WW 3piece is the only spoiler which mounts on the rear quarter panels and the hatch. while there may be other which utilize the same holes on the hatch, there will still be holes on your rear quarter panels.

Even if there was you would still have to fill the holes on the hatch.

i heard that 3 piece, if its the same one, uses the same holes, except you have to fill in the ones in the very middle.

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.

ok that's actually true but it looks kinda dumb (no offense to anyone with it). you leave the two side pieces of the stock 3 piece on and just replace the middle section. of course the side pieces do not match the new middle portion but at least you don't hafta fill holes. i'm sure someone has pics of it... i think it's like the GTR wing or something that you can do that. the sides don't match the wing though...

420 is right
The three piece from WW is using stock holes of fenders....and you dont use stock wing pieces there...the ones with the WW wing are higher.However you will still be left with holes in the middle of the trunklid...so either way you will have to fill some holes and paint up.

I am pretty sure the "wangan" carbon fiber wing from importfan uses all the stock holes. I have never actually seen one on an Eclipse aside from their test fit thing so I couldn't tell ya.

NO

it does not use the mounting holes on the quarter panel
if it did you would NOT be able to open the trunk emoji

no offense guys but he asked for only people who know to answer - not a lot of guesses




so to review:
your only option which requires NO filling of ANY holes would be to keep the side pieces of the stock 3pc low spoiler and find an aftermarket center section which does not interfere with the sides. it would not look pretty however (IMO)
