Custom under trunk cover.

CC'S95GT · Mar 4, 2012

You all know how ugly under our trunk lids are.

So I had this thin sheet diamond plate laying around and decided to make it fit under the trunk.

Ugly no more.
More pics and a how to if you want

I have seen some that were wood wrapped in a trunk liner material. I've also seen that done with a running pony in the center. Looked sick.

id like to know how but I plan on maybe making out out of something else

made one out of wood/plexi myself, I have to agree the diamond plate is a bit much. If it matched something it would be better, but not sure where else in the car you want to put diamond plate.

I like it, I think it would look a lil better black, but that's my opinion, how did u do it?

thanks guys
I have a plan to cut some more pieces and glue them under the hood, and make some covers for the fuse box and battery. not to much though. but I have to find the real thin stuff first.
Maybe a big bar and pony emblem in the middle of the trunk would break it up some.

I think that would help it out alot. I hope it doesnt rattle on you too bad

diamond plate to me just belongs on trucks honestly. Not sure if adding more pieces would help it or not.

I do think it's a bit out of place, but we all have our tastes. I think some accenting and stuff would definitely help it out. One thing's for sure, it looks tough!

OnyxCobra · Mar 4, 2012

I don't think adding more is going to do anything but make it look more gaudy, I don't think that's the kind of stuff you want as accents on your car. I'd either wrap it in carpet, paint it black or go another route.

I hope it doesn't rattle too. In the first pic you can see the double sided tape installed to the trunk. I didn't peel the blue backing off it yet. it's more of an insulator now though. I also split a piece of vacuum tube and slid it on the exposed edge all the way around.It is a bit flashy and that's the only thing on the car that bright, so it will probably be painted black.
