Well you really need to make it in seperate pieces. That all piece together, if you want to remove it to get to stuff like that. Go to this website and look at his pics of installs. https://www.hzemall.com/hzemall_folder/gallery/hzemall_gallery.htm------------- Learning the trade one fiberglass creation at a time!

I'm going to be fiberglassing my entire trunk too and I think I will make it all one piece but will put in access panels to get to the lights and my secondary battery. Maybe some kind of mock grill or even some speaker grills if they dont look out of place or just a recessed panel which can be removed once and a while when you need to change bulbs etc..The only thing holding you back is your imagination !  ------------- In a world full of copycats, it's great to be an original!

You can make one piece not covering the taillights. And then you can make a removable cover for the whole thing. ------------- Nik

haha...sweet. the lincoln town car with air ride and the eclipse system came to the tire shop i work at (curtis tire) and its not really that great of a system, the was some cancellation or something cause he couldnt turn the bass up hardly at all, my buds system with 2 12" JBLs and a 424 watt amp sounded the same, it was pretty funny...so more show than go. plus he drove around too much with the air too low or off or something, but the air hoses and the outer lipof the tire were wearing down, pretty scary. had to say something cause its a familiar car....i think the system cost like 40,000 or something. he said the entire setup with airride and all that was about 70,000...i also saw the car in a magazine (cant remember which one) so i'm glad it payed off somewhat, and hopefully the system works properly now. the 2000 acura GSR is a beauty too...got to see that one too...
