not feedback, but a bump, cause i`m interested also.
specially th "Extremely delicate - PLEASE read disclaimer!" part.

iKno cf is a more delicate material than metals when used like this, but as long as iDont slam the lid down, it shouldn`t go warping on me, right?

i havent heard good things about the weight reduction posibilities. its like u save 10 pounds or sumthing from a chargespeed trunk. (i think silviadriver said it go ask him) he also said its like $60 per 1lb

I costs more than my Hood! I also always slam my trunk when I'm closing it.

Why oh why would you possibly need a CF trunk? I bet you $10 that you wouldn't gain any performance from the 10 lbs of weight you would save. Just pull out your spare tire or something if you want the rear end to be lighter.

ok then. thanks for the advice

The fitment on every (ok.. the GTP) cf trunk I've seen blows. I wouldn't put one on my car. Ever. If you're in Tampa, and you see a red s13.5 or 1580 riding around, look at the trunk. You'll see too.

10 pounds on the wrong side of the car, too. Most people WANT weight in the trunk, if anywhere, for better weight distribution. Even though it's not much. At 300 horsepower, it'll be .01 seconds shaved off in the 1/4 mile.
