Buy different replacement emblems that fit? Either that or a bodyshop to fill the holes and repaint it.

Plugs would be the only other alternative.

i have seen people plug the wing holes in the rear deck lid and paint them to match and they blend in really nice. it would be the cheapest way to go. u can get the plugs at the local lowes or home depot. other than that u have to repaint the car after u have them professionally filled. if u want to do it yourself you would have to weld a plate on the backside and fill it in with some bondo. then paint

seal the holes, glue your emblems on.

Hahahahahah, didn't think about that. His ride is grey so I guess good old fashion duct tape would be better.
