How Do You Close Your Trunk????

I recently had a 2005 g35x while my car was being detailed and noticed it had a little handle in the trunk to pull on close it......the coupe does not have that feature....i hate closing my trunk and leaving fingerprints on it or the fear of scratching it all the time...


What/where are you grabbing the trunk to close it....i've been using the edge where the spoiler and trunk meet, so any scratching would be unnoticable, but it seems kinda askward....i wish there was a handle or even something aftermarket to assist...just a thought

I use the inside handle on my '05. it's pretty neat. all you do is grab a hold and pull down hard enough to pull your hand out and the trunk closes...no need to leave finger prints on the paint.

With my coupe, I just use the Infiniti emblem to close the trunk.

Just make a fist and use the outside of it to push down on the trunk while standing towards the side of the car. I use a knuckle on the finger to close the doors while pushing on the rubber at the bottom of the window. No prints and no scratches with both of these closing techniques.

I climb in the trunk an pull it shut - then I squeeze my big azz through the "ski hole" and climb through the car with my dirty shoes on.

I use reins to steer just like those Santa uses and a whip to close the trunk.
