Do I need a new trunk? 2008 Civic Sedan
The whole part in red broke off. The hinge is bolted to the trunk, but hinge is fine but ripped off that whole part that is bolted to the trunk and now the trunk is connected to nothing with 2 rectangular pieces ripped off from both ends...
Do I need a new trunk? Is there any other way to fix this?
I have a hard time closing the trunk once it is open since it is not connected to anything, so I found a picture on google and made a red box of what part got ripped off the trunk. So imagine the bolt is still on the hinge and trunk and instead of the hinge breaking off, the hinge is fine and it is bolted so well to the trunk that part of the trunk ripped off where it is bolted to the hinge.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

I assume you need a trunk LID? Post a pic of yours, showing the damage?
