Default Some trunk bling
Something a bit nicer than the carpet covered trunk lid and dividers that are out there. The idea on the divider was a take off of the Grand Sport hash stripes. While in there covered up the vert top hinge covers, have always thought the black didn't look good with a light oak or non-black interior.

I made the internals of the divider and the 1/4" luan for the trunk lid. Had the upholsterer at my brother's shop do the sewing. He really enjoys doing custom work.

If anyone is interested, PM me and I'll put you in touch.

Thanks for all the positive comments from folks.
