I plan on making a fibreglass amp rack on my trunk lid and I was wondering what the best way to attach the rack to the lid would be. I would like to avoid cutting my car if at all possible so that I could take it out if I were to sell my car so that it could be completely reversed, but I would be willing to if it were absolutely necessary.
Here is a picture of my trunk lid
Thanks for the help

I would make use of the frame holes and put a brace behind them and mount to them.
I would use a steel strip with a felt lining to protect the paint and put a bolt through it. Then add a strip of MDF on the underside of the trunk lid for your base to build off of. Again, line it with felt (or whatever is soft) to help protect the paint. The more points you make the stronger it will be. In this case I would make use of all the holes.

The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra.
