[QUOTE="martiandancer31, post: 7452479, member: 616516"] molded the right side of the trunk today: [IMG]http://i968.photobucket.com/albums/ae168/martiandancer316/IMG_1602.jpg[/IMG] this was a giant pain in the ballsack, mainly because of the trunk opening and closing. Essentially, I built a small frame in that area that barely clears the bars in both the open and closed positions, hot glued it into the trunk (for easy removal later), then taped around that. I made a small mistake due to the wire looms attached to the trunk lid but it's an easy fix (or ignore, really. I could just get rid of the stupid looms....). The other side doesn't have the same problem so it'll be a tad easier. [IMG]http://i968.photobucket.com/albums/ae168/martiandancer316/IMG_1603.jpg[/IMG] mold glassed and removed from the car.
