Default Replace AP2 Spoiler with the smaller spoiler?

Looking at a car that has an oem ap2 spoiler installed, the one that requires two holes for installation. If I buy the smaller oem spoiler will it cover both sets of holes in the trunk?

^^ The wing or the spoiler? The wing has 4 holes in it with 2 on each side. Ive been told the other lip spoilers only cover the back 2 and leave the front 2 open.

from the looks of it, it does not go up that far to cover the front two holes for sure. trade a local trunks can be an option

I'm going to look at the car tomorrow so I'd really appreciate the measurements.

Thanks

It will not cover. The front 2 ap2 holes, closest to the front of the car is not overed by the lip spoiler from the ap1. The JDP one I believe covers it. You will either have to plug the holes, trade trunks, or keep it.

No the wing holes don't get covered by the smaller OEM spoiler.

Damn, looks like I will need to start looking for another trunk then if the rest of this car works out. Either that or it's a good excuse to grab a Mugen wing.
