Very nice. Since you are getting it molded in are you going to completely debadge your trunk too (remove Mt Fuji, fill holes)?

^So are you molding the lip into your trunk or just installing it with double sided tape? If you are molding it they are going to repaint the trunk I would highly suggest filling in the two holes behind the Mt. Fuji since the trunk will be repainted anyway. You can always put your Mt. Fuji back on your completely debadged trunk.

I much prefer a completely debadged trunk, but that is a personal preference, just the Mt. Fuji looks good too. But in your case I recommend it because its not going to cost you anything extra given the other work you are having done. You will be able to run your Mt Fuji logo and a completely debadged look if you ever change your mind.

My Nismo rear lip is molded into my bumper. I only had it molded into the bumper not the entire quarter panel. If you go past the quarter panel line then you need to mold it all the way in for it to look right. See the below pics.

If you fill the holes you will have a fully shaved trunk. Thats popular and many of us have it, since they are painting it have them fill the holes.
