It may be the pics but for some reason the fitment looks a tiny bit off, like the trunk should be sitting a touch lower. Maybe R&J can adjust it when they repaint it.

I'm gonna try to take the shock off of that side to see if it helps at all.

You can adjust your trunk latch on the inside of the trunk, loosen the screws and lower it, the trunk will definitely sit more flush.

Looks good. The fitment is a small issue as others have stated. Wont take much to fix. Your color match on the other had wll be hard. Your colors is hard to match as it is and different clears will make a difference. The best way would be to blend the color into both quarter panels but that will cost money. Other option is have the spray a test panel of the different variables of your color and see which one is the closest.

Looks amazing, but your color is sooo hard to get to 100% the same as the body color. I want this trunk sooo bad but i might get it this year or next.

I've removed the shock (it was only used on 1 side due to trunk being so light). The 2 sides are even now, but could still go lower. I'm going try to adjust the latch to lower the way it closes and see how it looks.

Anyone know how to put the trunk shocks back on? I cant put enough pressure on it to get it compressed enough to slip in.the put it on the other side so I'm running shockless right now.
