I put tape on it, but nope. It would still come down. I will hate the hole, but I dealt with that useless DVD player's screen for too long.
Plus, I threw it away anyway, so it's not going back on. lol

Lol that makes sense

Made me a trip to the junk yard and joined the ranks of the wingless. I'm still not 100% on how I feel about it yet but, I love the fact that I can actually finally see out of my entire rear window though! That, and the wingless trunk is SO much lighter than the trunk with the highrise. I was pretty surprised actually.

Im wondering if i should go wing less the car is in the shop and the trunk will get repainted so i could take advantage and have them cover the holes and paint everything. Then again what will i do with my wing lol

I've been thinking about going wingless since I bought my car last year, I mean I like the high rise, but I kind of hate it too.

Snail_SS

iTrader: (3)

Same feeling for the wing lol

Getaway_Driver

Only thing preventing me from going wingless is the fact my car is a unique color. I won't even be able to find the plugs in the same color.

I really like the Tjin trunks, but the quality of the carbon fiber and duraflex trunk lids are hit and miss.

Yeah reason why i got the m52 wheels instead of the cf tjin trunk. And unique paint you say lol we are in the same boat

Got a new TB for the car from Jeff, going to install it this weekend. Current one has a crack in the butterfly. I just dont like to see that.

I got mine for $120 in great shape and it was only 10 minutes from my place. I'm not quite sure about silver, but I was able to find 4 black trunk lids within 20 minutes of me, so I'm sure you could find one relatively close for a good price. I think the most expensive one I found was like $175.

Ahh, the glory of having an overly abundant color type.

Stopped by the body shop and they already fixed the dents now they have repaint i guess, but still waiting on the insurance guy to contact the shop again. But alas finally some progress :

try a junkyard? that is god awful though.

Getaway_Driver

I found this site called Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market after EmperorJJ1 suggested I check a junkyard for the headliner I need. I sent an email that is apparently going to be received by a bunch of different junkyards for exact price quotes and details. Not 100% sure if legit, but I'll report back on it whenever I do get contacted.

Last time i went to the junk yard there was alot of headliners but they didnt have the sunroof since they were all base models but its worth a try and most where destroyed

09CobaltSS1

The site is completely legit. This is exactly how I located my trunk actually. They, and quite a few other sites like them, are linked to a nationwide data base for locating used parts and vehicles throughout many many junk yards in the counry. It can be hit or miss sometimes, but they use a rating system to identify the quality of the part.

Just be sure to someone at the actual junk yard who has seen the item and ask lots of question about anything you might be interested in.... miles, dings, scratches, dents, ect ect. Just don't feel obligated to purchase the part without laying eyes on it. This isn't a site unseen deal. If you show up, and it's a pile of crap. Just be courteous, shake their hand, say thank you very much, and walk away.

I have a CF blade as well, what about the one you have makes it rare?

Dipped_Cobalt

lol oh no he dednt

whats cool about a g5 trunk? need google that.

cus no 3rd brake light?

Cus no backup lights, it's pretty damn clean looking

UnkleRaRa

The vette/GTR style "4 round taillights" look is one of my favourite things about the balt.

I think putting on a G5 trunk just takes away from the look..... for me anyway.

What I'd love is to have the reverse lights from the G5 next to the license plate, and have the 4 tail lights be running, turn signal, and brake lights right from the factory instead of making me have to re-wire everything!! lol

Purchasing touch up paint. Someone decided to shoot what looks like a pellet from a pellet gun at my rear quarter

My history professor told me his Grand Am he apparently used to race in the 90's would beat my balt
