you should have some experience with body work, but you have to weld them up then grind it, glaze it, prime it, and paint it. i suggest going to a body shop to make it look right.

hmm, good idea. i wonder how much they would charge. if it was alot, i think id wait just to save that money for a carbon fiber trunk...

Best thing is to way till you have alot of touch ups to do on your car.
I had to have the entire hood/front bumper and side passenger door repainted. The bodyshop quote me a good price, i told him to include the emblem shaving with it.. and he did it... voila..


a good guy shouldn't charge you more than 200$ for the entire repaint of the trunk by itself..

If you want it to look good, go to a bodyshop. Downside is the whole trunk needs new paint after that and it may not match. Some ghetto things have been using silver vinyl stickers to cover each hole.

i don't get why people try so hard to get rid of their honda signs and the key hole... if you don't want to show that you got a honda, don't get a honda, and why woud u want to get rid of the convenience of an extra access to the trunk?
lol, j/k
