Driving Around WITHOUT a Trunk for a Week...What Do I Do?
Hey all...

To make a long story short, I couldn't find a wingless local to swap trunks with. I finally found someone, but they are not driving distance.

I promised I would ship my trunk first.

What do I do for the week without the trunk? Any ideas on how to cover it or should I just not drive it? I would like to at least cover it so that my meth and pump isn't exposed to the air

Any insight would be great!

Thanks!

- Dominic

I'd go for the cardboard, that would be totally ghetto-chic. You'd have to post pics then, of course

but yeah that sucks

get cardboard and put painters tape on it...I hope you have a garage to store it from the elements from outside. Make sure ur seats are locked! to prevent someone from wanting to get in there...

Not saying you need it although it looked like a good plug. Otherwise don't drive backwards really fast otherwise you will get some major lift...2F2F Brian Spliner

Also the EVO seats do not fold down so they would have one hell of a fun time tearing through your trunk.
