Directional light isn't easy. You could easily put a false floor with a plexi panel and custom cut carpeting though.

that would look tight... you could also use plexi glass and etch LANCER into it with a dremel

You could lay down a dark mat with custom glued, sewn, or painted WHITE lettering / symbols whatever. Then use black lights to highlight your design at night. I did this by installing black lights under the two front seats. I have a few pics of this and what it looks like on the OZ floor mats on my vehicle page.

That's some dope ish there, Brian. Should work nicely in the trunk also, just a matter of mounting the lights. I'm thinking below the speakers or around there, to keep it hidden.

When I picked up my black lights they also had the following:

10" neon blue
10" neon red
10" black light (what I am using)

15" neon blue
15" neon red
15" black light

There is a company that does custom COLOR fiber optic work that is sewn into carpets.

It looks very trick, you can also have a module that scrolls the color through the fibers to give a cool effect.

I wanted to do something like that, very trick and rare, so be happy.

try etching some plexiglass like a false floor of ur trunk n light it from the sides. the light should only show at the etching and i think that would look seriously hot.
