depending on the color of your car you can try to find a 02-03 lancer deck lid at a junkyard

otherwise cf deck lids are probably more plentiful

chargespeed is the best fitting trunk i've ever seen. i'd personally go for an RS trunk though. that way you're guaranteed that it'll fit, and you don't have to worry about cf fading/peeling/cracking, etc.

I'd do the carbon trunk, even a ****ty faded one, and then have it painted, so you get wingless clean look, and lighter car!
