Hey give the guy a minute to rest! LOL

Going with a full tilt front end might make his car look like a Transformer Robot. J/K :wink:

If there's one person who could do it, that would be Michael!

^^The below recap should answer your question bro.^^

Project recap:
Estimated time = 3 hours
Hardware = $10.00 from local hardware
A buddy for moral support to tell you that you're gonna screw up your car and he doesn't have the slightest idea of why you're doing this; also to help hold the trunk in place while you work = priceless. (Thanks again Aaron)

^^You're so right bro 8) ^^

^^Well, that's a good question, if the setup is similiar, I definitely think this can be done.^^ I'm planning on doing this same setup to a local Gen 1 buddy of mine in the near future. So I'll definitely keep you guys posted.


Thanks again everyone for the response. Let's see what 2006 has in-stored for the SG Crew.

Now if it were my decision I'd put some subs and custom box in there to show off with that nice flip trunk. Just to make all the haters out there hate ya more.
