ya iw as thinking about getting ride of the burger, but i decided to let it stay for the time being. THe glue wasn't that bad, just took some Really hot tap water and some mild dish soap to loosen it up a bit, then went to walmart and got some goo off, whatever little bit was left i compounded, and then waxed it, and tada.. all together took a few hours, but was well worth it. helps my max stand out a little, now if i could just find me some RED CLEARS

I donno it came on the car when i bought it off the guy, I think its the dealer ship that it came from, either way its Painted on which sucks.. so IF i do the 97-99 trunk to my car, its going bye bye, till then ill deal with it.. Although I have thought of taking my OEM touch up paint to it, but im not so sure how that would look. The paint is like a gritty, grayish raised paint, so i figure ill just leave it be

actually i was playing around with photoshop yesterday and i wanted to do this

Go for the BMW look, but the damn All clears are extinct! Thats why i figure the 97-99 trunk mod is nice, also going to see if i can find an SE trunk so i can get the spoiler and not have to order it online, kill 2 birds with one stone sorta thing

Rumor has it that 95-96 R/C will be put out by custommaxima, but that is rumor<>

Your trunklid idea is sound, if you want the spolier then why not get the whole lid.!
