Carbon Fiber Trunk Leak

Okay So I installed my CF Trunk and got it to fit almost perfect, I just need to drill out the holes on the mounting brackets to make them a little bit bigger so I can drop it down just a hair more torwards the back, I don't know were my trunk is leaking at but I think it might be were the trunk meets the back window, any ideas?

Maybe if I put some sort of rubber door seal or something in there to for extra protection, and When the water gets into the trunk it actually goes in through the holes that are in the inside of the trunk and just pool up actually inside my trunk lid, its rather annoying because when I open the trunk just a **** ton of water comes dumping out at me.


PICS








I will try to get better pictures tonight!

Drove 4.5 hours away and traded a dude my highrise +180 bucks for it!

He couldn't get it aligned for **** so he didn't want it anymore, it's really not hard to get them to align correctly

Oh and its made by VIS

Theres a rubber gasket not on the trunk lid but actually on the car it self were the trunk meets the car, maybe I should add some more rubber to that to make a tighter seal.
