    Trunk Hinge Mod

    Anyone ever do a mod to their trunk to make it open like this?

    Is there a kit somewhere to do this?

    i think that it just looks silly, i would rather spend the time making a trunk release mechanism to work with a remote and a lever in the car personally

    I think it also makes it so your trunk can hit the rear window.. seems like a pointless mod compared to say... replacing the leaf springs with pneumatic struts

    Just cause you have it done, don't mean you have to use it. Mine is as simple as flipping a bar over. Other than that it opens normal. It is kinda cool at meets, not only that you can hear the stereo better. lol...

    That's basically why I want to do it.
