lol I bet there's over 20 crashes already!!!

 

The trunk looks great! When you figure out who's gonna install it, post how it goes.

I'm expecting my CF trunk (and hood) in May and I'll have to go through the same process.

 

the hinge holes are already drilled. just gotta cut out the latch mechanism hole. It also looks like it's fiberglass underneath and the outside is carbon fiber. not sure if that's right or not

 

i actually didnt find the roads to be that bad. i had lots of traction. just 1st and 2nd i had to pedal it a bit

 

I have no traction in any gear! lol

 

That's how most CF products are made. Solid CF would be insanely expensive.

lol how did I know Tjay would post up about work!

 

ive gone to A1 autobody everytime ive had issues and they are amazing!! no issues for the 4 times ive gone

 

Thanks travis but I doubt anybody will touch this trunk

 

Hey Jon, friend of mine has a performance shop in nw just of 32nd. He does absolutely wonderful work and stands behind everything, won't let it leave unless both you and him are happy

 

even carbon fiber?

 

PM box has been emptied, for whomever was trying to PM me.

 

my buddy clint works at A1, just looking to get the trunk painted??

 

not painted, fixed. I have a feeling it's gonna be sent back to extreme dimensions

 

oh yea, i couldnt find anyone in calgary to fix my CF hood from my ion...

 

What's wrong with it?

 

it's got an issue with the clearcoat

 

bummer.

how's the fit on it?

are you going to add a trunk lock?

basically if the trunk needs to be tweaked ~ then it would have to get re-cleared or painted.

BUT!

if it's a jellcoat issue, (from what I've gathered) that's a whole different deal...

 

I'm thinking it's gelcoat issues. it looks like the small chips are right down to the fiber

 

3 day old bump! Hope y'all had a good long weekend.

Sorry to hear about your trunk Sylver, hope mine won't be like that.

 

^^^this thread sometimes is hopping for weeks on end;
other times it slows down for a breather

it seems as though right now some of the regulars in this thread are posting in the dungeon, or lurking

 

I have never been in the dungeon! lol

 

Getting close to time to put my TVS, etc, in my 2.4L SS. Where in Calgary should I go? I was going to goto ZZP, but man... That is one long ****** drive.
