Hmm...
Tried renaming your app to Finder.app, and place it into /System/Library/CoreServices/
Eh... be sure to move (not Trash) the original Finder.app first though.
This can get very messy.....

You could write an AppleScript:
tell application "Finder" to quit
If you put that in your startup items (I think) it'll run at login...though I'm not 100%. Maybe someone else can confirm.
EDIT: this will work, but after you've written this one line of code you need to go File-Save As and choose application. Then it'll run when added to the login items.
This will be much safer than the method above as it simply closes Finder on startup
