What the hell? I just got my cf trunk from seibon and i put it on and it sits to high...the right side of it is out and up to far......i tried messing with the hinges but it didnt help.............Does anyone know if u have to sand down the trunk somehow or something?????????? It looks really stupid right now...

try drilling out the holes on the trunk hinges so you can adjust it back and forth and side to side, then i suggest trunk pins

Little G

i tried drilling them but it just doesn't seem to work...i think im gonna bring it to a body shop...............Trunk pins??? they actually make them

i mean they are the same thing as hood pins, just use it with the trunk, most carbon fiber trunks wont fit right, the pins are used to pull it down to make it sit flush

Little G

where can u but them at???? cause i was just thinking about lowering the latch on the bumper part to make the trunk go down farther to sit in flush

on opposite sides of the trunk on top, like where the wing would go, if you lower the latch it wont lock in properly, but i suppose you could try

Little G

oh well i wanted to put the wing back on...

that will probably help push the trunk down, it is must a fact that carbon fiber trunks dont sit very well...best of luck, sorry i couldnt help you out

hmm i bought an oem trunk (after an accident) and i have the same problem. keep me updated if you find a solution

Little G

yeah, i think im going to a body shop...and maybe they can put my hood pins in for me to

I've read a few threads about this and I think you can avoid a trip to the body shop.
1. reverse the latch on the trunk, (upside down I guess)
2. Have a buddy sit inside your trunk and help you adjust from inside, someone on here did it and it worked. lol
3. Use washers and whatnot, to adjust the gaps.

Try searching. I know theres some threads about this exact problem

Hate to be the one to tell you this but, SEARCH. this has been posted a whole lot of times. this took me half the time it took you to make this thread.

Old thread but I just put my Seibon on my MR and it was easy as pie. Just had the move the latch on the body up a little.
