New Trunk Finally On
After having this sit in my basement for almost a month, I finally came home and put it on. Im not sure if anyone else with a cf trunk has the same problem with closing it...it just doesnt want to catch the latch

Looks good Tim!

If the trunk isn't catching the latch, try moving the latch up a bit. Also, make sure you catch your trunk when you open it instead of letting it fly open... you don't want it to break

look sick Tim. When I had it on my car it closed perfectly fine. Maybe just adjust the mounting bolts a little, and see if its angled properly.

Also, I think I took out the trunk stopper thing.

Looks awesome!

I checked it and its angled perfectly and the spacing around the edges is all even. I couldnt even get the rubber stoppers to fit into the holes so I didnt put them in lol. I dont know how you got the lightbulb covers to snap into the spots though. Nameless and I tried our hardest but it wouldnt go in all the way so he ended up siliconing around it to cover up the gap so water wouldnt leak in . Oh well, either way it fits great
