meade916 Posted June 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 I couldn't stand the thought of having raw carpet in a trunk full of leather and suede. The problem is, the trunk carpet is just that, molded carpet. It is too flimsy to just "wrap" in leather. It would just pull away and look like shit....wouldn't even work. So i decided to make it strong by fiberglassing the back side of it. That worked great except....being carpet, and flimsy, it gave way when the trunk was shut (when it hit my other stuff). Once i glassed it, it gave no more and guess what......trunk would not shut AGAIN. LOL.....so now i gotta do something about it. The two large holes are where it was bubbled out "stock". I had to grind them down to nothing and then re-glass flat. If you look at the pics, there is heavy modifications done to it. I wanted to do it in two pieces but ended up bonding the first (original piece) to the new, fiberglassed trunk "carpet".

You shouldnt be sore at all lol. are you wrapping it or paint? those guys doing this kind of work? lol ya right! Psyph needs to stick to rapping. oh, the plan is to have it leather on the outside, a blue french seam, and black suede in the middle. Subject to change.

meade916 Posted June 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Hey steve.. umm i've my filler with an orbital sander, why dont u try that? easier on the hands, or a detail sander, doesnt eat through the filler as easy its mostly too technical for an orbital sander. Do you think i don't have one of those? lol There is like 3 spots that are flat. The rest is all contours. I used it on the flatter spots but everything else is by hand and sometimes finger LOL Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!
