I'm not exactly sure what the stock weight is, but our CF trunk is approx 10lbs. I've been told that it is quite a substantial difference.

What about gas mileage minus the wing and the weight? Has anyone thought about maybe getting a third break light from one of the cavalier models that are equipped with the rear window unit?

LOL, the wing does not weigh 20 pounds. I could be wrong but it sure feels much lighter then that....

I would bet the SS/SC trunk weighs in at or around 30 pounds with wing.

Honestly, I just want to put in some good words for these guys! I have been in and out of money for the last couple of months and I have really busted their ***** with asking for prices on combos and such during times where I should have money coming in. They have always been AMAZING to me and it sure does seem like they are willing to go above and WAY beyond the call of duty to make their clients happy! Id love to say Im going to get a combo but I dont want to get my hopes up until the money is in hand and I can freely part with it..

Sounds good Martin, keep me posted.

I have a sedan trunk sitting here in my garage which I will use to take some underside pics of later today. Is there something you guys are looking for specifically? The underside looks much like the OE structure. All of our inner frames have more than 95% of the OE frame structure still in place to ensure a solid finished product.

Most will probably want to see the boundary between the CF and the fiberglass (I'm assuming this isn't CF on both sides), as well as maybe an iso shot of the structure to get an idea of material thickness. Also, is it set up to take the trunk liner from the stock lids, or would holes need to be drilled for that?
