I'm not a body guy, I can fix engines, but I dont even touch body... but I want to get rid of the luggage rack on my GT vert. I figure, I can drill out the rivets and fill the holes... shouldnt be a bid deal. Do you guys have any links to web sites on how to do this stuff. I mean, I understand teh basic concepts, are these holes small enough that I wont need the fiberglass type filler. or do I need to put something in the holes so the filler can stick to it? Any help would be appreciated...

I thought of just getting a new trunk lid, but to get one off an LX it wouldnt have the 3rd brake light, plus I'd have to pay for it... I figure alittle elbow grease and some bondo should be a fun project?
