I have Eibach pro kit springs on my SS/SC, how much would the ride on the B&G's differ? How much lower will I go? I have Koni adjustables on also.

The B&Gs have no wheel gap bro. I like them a lot. Check out my pic in my gallery. The ca is dirty but u can see how low it is. And that was the da I got them on

I'm a little concerned about being that low with the way roads are around here.....I have to go over speed bumps in my apartment complex. I do have the front lower air dam(plastic piece that pushes air buck up towards radiator) off so I wouldn't have to worry about that scraping........I will let ya know....I get a bonus from work middle of May but I want to get tint, wheels powdercoated, and a tune....not sure if I'll have enough left for springs.

You should put that on. If you ever have a situation where you need to cool down fast, that dam will help you.

and i'm glad mine is on, it lets me know how close i am to scraping.

so would I be considered "ghetto" if I decided to remove the wing and patch up the holes with red electrical tape instead of spending $400 to get the holes filled or $300 to get a trunk from a junkyard.

I really wanna go wingless, but don't really wanna drop $275 on a used trunk

I tried calling my dealership to trunk swap, but a no-go. They didn't wanna break the paint on the bolts.

Ugh.

There are other creative solutions besides red tape...

I've look at other solutions:

https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-guide-43/how-fill-trunk-holes-192405/

but it seems that many people have had issues with that method.

Any other ideas?

I'm sorry if that's yours, but I don't like it (creative though). Maybe if it was color matched to the car.

The tape is only .05mm thick so it won't stand up too much from the trunk, plus I will be cutting the tape to the hole sizes instead of placing 2 squares over top of it.
