And now I wan't to know if I have those holes in my boot, but I'd have to move a few cars to be able to open my tailgate. But the original carpet would've gone a little closer to the rubber seal, mine has no extra trim there either though. I don't think my tow bar is mounted like that. You gonna take all those racks off? Might see you out on the road in it. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Take them all off! I had never seen one with 4 racks before lol. How much is that piece costing you? I was going to make something myself.. but I am just to lazy to do nearly anything these days (something has changed on it though.. but still not really finished) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

It would have been around 60 bucks, until the priick decided to change his mind on how to do it...Although it will look almost perfect now its gonna be about 100 bucks all up (something has changed on it though.. but still not really finished) Any hints?

Nothing major, I need to sort out all the trim that my car has been missing for a year before I take photos Just doesn't look proper at the moment, half way there. Just not in a hurry to spend money on it (which is why I've done what I have lol).. I only drive it maybe twice a month. Will you put a photo up of that interior trim when it's done?

Oh Sweet, give the ole girl abit of a birthday huh Yeah no worries it'll probably be ready next week, i'll get a pic then. Trim guy did it in plastic board, cut out all the holes then covered it with White Vinyl which has pretty much the same pattern as the original. Hopefully the Paint guy gets the colour match close to perfect. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
