streetconcept.com carbon fiber trunk w/ pre-drilled key holes
I got mine yesterday - took 13 days from when I ordered. I put it on as soon as it came, wasn't the easiest thing I've ever done, but a phone call to street concept helped me finish. It looks great, I'm really happy - I will post pics when I get a chance to clean the car

yeah, before 5pm they do...not after 5pm. I dont get home until 6pm everyday. But anyway, I spent about 4hrs yesterday installing the trunk(enlarging holes for placement), it still doesnt fit perfect and the finish on the trunk itself is WAY NOT perfect...but it is made in mexico and it was real cheap and it will be on the car during daily drives, commutes, and will get scratched, pitted by stones on the highway and jerks who like to key things, so all in all I guess its okay. Good thing I dont do car shows cuz I'd get points off for it. 
on a good note, i figured out a way to easily take off the spring rods! Need 1 long screw driver and 1 long box wrench. place screw driver between the U part of the spring(handle towards you) place the box wrench behind the U part but with the driver end through the O of the wrench. Pull up on wrench and driver and then out. make sure to hold on tight cuz it wants to go back into place...slowly release into untensioned state, and done.

okay, here goes...first thing I noticed was the piece of straw stuck in the edge.
then, there was this bump that looks like someones finger coming out of the trunk.
its right where the reflection looks like a < . then a bit above that there another part that looks like a marble was dropped onto it from above, you can tell by the single reflection in the dark part, then I noticed that all along the edges on top there are wavy wrinkles all over the place... I mean sure it looks nice in the sunlight, but put it under a flourescent light and bam everything jumps out at you. :P
