Wing Problem

So I bought the JDM-R rear wing but I was taking a look at my car today and it seems that there might be a hole where the electric goes to the stock wing. Does anyone know what to do or have experience with this? Will I have to bring my car to a body shop to get the hole filled? Thanks.

Here is the link to the website:
JDM-R rear wing / spoiler for 2006 - 2010 Honda Civic 2dr [HC06BMJDMRW2] - $195.00 : AIT Racing.com, Body Kits, Carbon Fiber Hoods, Fenders, Doors, Manufacturer

he is talking about if there is a hole for the wire to go into the stock wing what does he do with it for the new wing since the new one doesnt have a 3rd brake light in it. I have a EX so I im not sure but I do understand what you are talking about.

It's easy:
If the hole your talking about will be underneath one of the 2 sides of the spoiler, no need to fill it, it will be covered. If it's a hole in the very middle of your trunk of course you will have to fill it.
