**Hikkatadori Sedan Trunk Interest and Sign Up Thread**

Update:

New thread to sign up:

https://g35driver.com/forums/exterio...dan-trunk.html

.................................................. ........

Ever since the MG trunk lid epic fail I am sure there are a lot of guys on here who still want a CF trunk or some kind of a trunk with lip molded.

The trunk is one of the very few interchangeable pieces throughout all the first gen sedans. So there is a decent market for it. Rookie or Kris, how do you feel about this?

Also, as we all know the bumper for all models is the same. (except for the button) would anyone be interested in designing something nice? Right now there is not a single aftermarket option for the rear full bumper.

Maybe the hikkatadori guys could do the trunk and Viet could take care of the bumper?

Any thoughts? Who's in for what?

Yea I'm starting to get closer and closer to getting a custom trunk done, I just want someone to make it for me. The MG trunk looked great.

Welcome to the life of a sedan owner. We are promised so much, but given so little.

Yeah... The last time something was promised, remember what happened to ttrank? Or the hoops that the x people had to go through, particularly flying lumpia for the coilovers? IMHO, members are better off going their own seperate routes on these prototypes.

Kris79 will make it happen if there are 10 buyers. You'll need to leave a deposit to show your commitment to the project but it won't be like the $400 MG wanted as a deposit.
