WildWillyWalker Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I'm looking to get a cheap trunk to fill in the spoiler holes and 3rd brake light area and do some other stuff. I'm wondering if it's possible to separate the inner bracing of the trunk from the skin and if so, how? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 as long as its hollow all the way to the seam weld. i did a tailgate skin on my old s10. all i did was grind the seam weld down and pry here and there. time consuming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure I might need to keep some of it, but I'll at least be cutting out some of it. We'll see. Big plans for next year, just need motivation.

95riosnake Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Why do you need to separate the bracing from the skin though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttocs Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Your going to buy and gut an old trunk lid so you can cover the holes in your current lid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prokiller Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 i'm intrigued by what this project could entail. for the life of me though i can't see any use in just a skin. why not just get a second lid and swap it over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildWillyWalker Posted November 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I want to find a cheap trunk to mess with so I can keep mine intact. I'm not going into detail because I'm not sure how this will work out. Also, it will be a while until this happens (if it does). I've learned to use the word "if" with everything I want to do, lol! Just compiling ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-Oh Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 Isn't your trunk lid fiberglass Sean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 Yes it's fiberglass, and I smell a drag car in the works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
