I guess my question is why a TV Monitor in the trunk lid? Pull up, pop the lid and have a mini drive-in


Everything looks sweet - Congratulations!

This is just me from a show-judging perspective.

From the pictures, the work on the trunklid was done very well. Paint on the fiberglass looks smooth and very close to oem color. Kudos for that.

I personally would be subtracting some points on the overall install, mostly from the block panel.

There are large, unsightly gaps for the goose necks and along the bottom of the rear deck. Also, it from the pictures, it looks like the installer didn't do a very good job in 1 portion as far as upholstering the panel. On the right sub, in the top right corner, it looks like there's some wrinkles. I don't know if that's just light reflecting off the material or if its bad upholstering.

Overall, good design, just need to refine it a little bit. The rear block panel probably can be sunk back another inch or two to give it a more flushed look.

Overall: 87/100
