Outcast Garage Duckbill Trunk Pictures

Just received my Outcast Garage Duckbill trunk in carbon fiber:








I couldn't decide whether to paint it color match the car or leave the carbon fiber as is??? My car is black obsidian so I don't think it stands out that much...

Either way it is currently at the bodyshop being clear coated! Even though it comes clear coated, the clear resin that is used on carbon fiber can't take long periods of UV rays until it starts to turn yellow. Better safe than sorry!

I think you should leave it carbon fiber. I think it'll stand out more as is than painted obsidian black. I personally love how CF looks on black G's especially when it gives off that nice reflection.

Far away and close up shots. Fitment looks off on the right side by the tail light because my bumper fitment is a little messed up. Not the trunk. I bought a new bumper and had it painted and it didn't fit the best but can be fixed up to fit better.

A little over the top for me but I'm glad you like it. Definitely not something you see on every modded sedan..........

Your duck bill trunk lid looks great! Took me a while to get accustomed to SLICK'S, she's going back to the body shop in January to do some detailed work!

Looks great! Always wanted one but it looks so awkward to me lol. Still on the fence but seeing yours kinda makes me want one.

Trunk looks good. Very clean G. I hope your next mod is some coils or lowering springs. Your G is begging for a drop with those aero mods and wheels.
