cant wait to see it on a car
just sold mine tho

 

So from those pics it doesn't look like any of the mounting holes for the lights are there. True or false?

 

so sexy, i might sell my cf g5 for one of these down the road. want to see some mounted and whatnot first

 

I think you're right, nothing a drill can't fix

 

That's correct, but its an easy fix with a drill. Thats how our current trunks are as well.

 

Oh ok. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't like. You don't get the part anymore :-p

 

BK05SS, DillySS, Gunney_07.. your trunks are being sent out today!

 

Looks nice can't wait to see it on the cars

 

Cant wait to get my CF one thanks to a member on hereeeeeeee

 

can't wait to see pics of the carbon fiber one and then i'll be waiting at the door for the ups man lol

 

Wooooot

 

Are there going to be any dimples or anything so we know where to drill the holes? im not tryin to screw up a 600 dollar trunk lol

 

x2

 

if there isnt, uninstall your tail lights, and dip them in something ie: glue, paint, anything to get something coated on the ends, and "stamp" that on your tail lights pockets of the new trunk, then just drill where the marks are left over.

 

Yeah but what about the trunk brackets?

 

looks goooood. so will any spots be marked on where to drill the holes?

 

There are no drill holes or indents gentlemen sorry. When making a mold those marks are so small they rarely ever show up. 07MetallicSC's idea is an excellent one, do as he suggested!

 

lame sauce

 

Sorry man, these are minor things, nothing to be upset about! Everyone thats bought a OEM style Carbon trunk or even a G5 style carbon trunk has done so with the same non drilled trunk.. it's really not all that difficult. The Chevy owners are suppose to be the handy ones!

 

yeah i know haha. so theres no holes for lights and mounting or just the lights?

 

Not holes at all. I am sure someone is going to try to get a sticky soon on a DIY for this, it's super simple but I am sure having pictures and how to guide will help!

 

I can't wait to see the carbon fiber

 

I had to drill the holes to mount my trunklid carpet, bump stops, open up the key hole a little, and trunk lock, as well as my 3rd brake light mounting on my G5 CF trunk from ED.

I looked at it and was honestly overwhelmed, thinking man im gonna mess up this expensive piece and be pissed. Then after looking at it for 20 mins I finally decided to give it a shot. I drilled very slow, and had my girlfriend hold it for me, took my time, would test fit the area when done, go with a bigger bit if needed, and when done, I had everything on my new trunk that my previous trunk had and it only took me maybe 30 minutes tops. Honestly it was cake. The mounting points were completed though for the hinges.

 

Is there any how-to for this drilling yet? tried searching but no luck... hope someone makes one with this GB goin on lol im not to worried about the lights as i am with the hinges. who knows... hopeing its not too difficult

 

I would imagine any body shop whould install it for a lil bit of nothin if you can't do it
