The trunk lid had to welded up as there were several holes and no, the JP spoiler would not cover them up. The car is now done, will post some pics this weekend. Looks great!

What did the shop charge you to weld the holes? One shop quoted me $400 to do the holes on the top of the lis and on the inside of the trunk.

My shop probably charged a little north of that figure, but its hard to tell exactly because I had some other work done at the same time ( had to get a crack and some other damage fixed on my Vertex front bumper ), and they prepped/painted the JP spoiler. They certainly did a good job, though, you would never know they welded the deck.

I want to see pics. The deck light in my car can be moved a little from left to right, so I assumed it was just bolted on and the deck is the same in all GSs. Are my assumptions correct?

My GS came w/ arear decklight when I put the RMM rear poiler on I wanted to get rid of the deck light because 2 3rd brake lights looked silly to me. Now that I want to go w/ the JP I perfer to have that added safety. Here is a pic from the 01 service manual of the deck.
It looks like the light can be added by cutting out an opening
