Just finished the trunk it was a pain . I cut it into two sheets the overlapped/lined them up . I think it looks pretty good but I have 3 wrinkles I need to fix they really annoy me so I'm gunna go back n do it tomorrow .

Worked all day on it and I put vynl on the gas cap what do you think ? I'm not sure of I really like it.

To debadge my trunk I took my little heater and held it up to the letter. I let it sit there for about a min and a half. Then once it was nice n warmish I took a screw driver put it behind the letter and hit the top of it with a wrench lol it worked very well I scratched the paint but Idc cause the paint already looked bad and I was putting vynl over it . After the letters were off I used this stuff called goo gone and it takes away all the adhesive glue left

If you want to do it the right way with out scratching your paint get a heat him heat up the letter so it's Nice n hot . Then wiggle it left and right and it will peel away almost like a sticker. Then you use glue adhesive remover such as goo gone (which is like 5$ at Walmart ) n try to get the glue warm before you use the goo stuff it makes it easier

Subwoofer update: okay so I am deciding to go with one sub instead of two becuase of the weight issue. I don't want to have 50 pounds in my trunk . So I'm going with one sub box 20pounds and a pioneer amp
