It disappoints me that almost no one can get the lights on the trunk to line up with the lights on the car. If that wasn't an issue I would have had one of these trunks years ago because I'm **** about stuff like that.

But overall OP the car looks great so enjoy her.

Fitment looks great on that one. I pulled the trigger and got one locally. I tried and have a local shop mold one for me but it came out soo horrible the owner offered to buy me a new trunk. Will post a pic once I get painted and fitted.

@North_NJ_G The CF version should be real Carbon Fiber with a clearcoat on top.

comin from a coupe standpoint...for anyone having troubles getting their trunk to line up always try removing the hydraulics off the sides.im sure this is common knowledge but to get mine to line up i had to run it with both off. of course its always nice holding up the trunk with my head now when its open lol...

I am aware of that. For whatever reason, the cf hd trunks from r1 supposedly have better fitment. I have one, but have not test fitted it. Goes into the shop this week for paint.

You've lost your mind, the right lights aren't even close to matching up with the ones on the body.

You know this is a sedan thread right?

They are still almost impossible to get to line up correctly.

Pics or it didn't happen. I know it's not that easy on 99% of the trunks sold as I have only seen one sedan on this forum that got it perfect, maybe you'll be the second.
