help with a question about getting a wing for my EX

Hello,
This is my first post hear, I have been lurking around for a few days now. I was wondering if any one can answer a question for me about getting a wing for my 07 Ex.
I already have a lip on my EX and I really don't care for it. So I want to get a wing like the SI's. I really don't want to spend the cash to have the holes filled and then painted from the lip so I am thinking about leaving it on and adding the wing. I have seen a few pictures of it done already and to my surprise it doesn't look bad at all.
I was planning on buying an after market OP SI style wing off of ebay. My question is will the wing still fit with the lip already on the trunk? Or do I have to get a wing made special to fit over the lip?
Thanks in advance to any one who can answer this question for me.

The wing will fit, but I would strongly recommend taking the lip off and eventually plugging the holes. Looks A MILLION times better, trust me. A few people have done it here with the lip still on, and while it doesn't look horrid, it doesn't exactly look good either. But it will fit!

IMO Don't do it. If will use "search" at the top of each page, you find out everything you need to know on this subject. The biggest issue is the 3rd light.

De-wire your rear deck lid light and wire it into the spoiler. Problem, essentially, solved. Could always get an LX rear deck lid too! Lose your 8" sub though...

Don't know why I said LX rear deck lid...

what I meant was an Si rear deck, where your speakers and sub are. That way you dont have a light in the back, that doesnt even work, haha.
