Nice trunk hinge trick...did you just move the bolt locations or something?

shaneMazda2000p did a write I think. Basically buy hinges from Lowes and put them where the two bars come up to the trunk. Some people bolt the hinges but we welded them. Then to clean up the welding, bondo, sand, and paint.
 
nope didnt do a write up, but i can get you some detailed pics and just pm me with any questions if yall want to know how to do it..

NO DONT!!!!!!!!!!!! the hinges u get are flimsy and cheaply made, get some thick gate hinges from lowes..

well, then there you go. dont buy the ebay ones and buy the lowes ones

i made the mistake of that, my trunk almost fell off with them, if it wasnt for the latch i wouldnt have a trunk..
 
VERY VERY CLEAN!!!!!
i think it would look good with painted mirrors and black mesh though

but hey it's one of the smoothest rides i've seen in a long time.
