Default False Trunk Update... Pics (Cutterwolf Inspired)

***CHECK LAST POSTS FOR UPDATED PICS***

So I have had a little time today to take on a project that has had me itching since I saw something similar in Cutterwolf's trunk..... d@mn you and your money spending ideas!!!

So my car has a theme of the "Dominator":



and I have continued the theme through to the trunk now. I used some MDF board for the base and some thin hard board for the Dominator lettering, that took an eternity to cut out with the dremmel, but well worth it for the 3D effect. Great for car shows:

BEFORE:



AFTER:





I also managed to find a cheap 9 buck fire extinguisher, came with a crappy (enormous) sticker that wrapped around it that took forever to take off, then I ordered a Mustang pony and a GT sticker to dress it up with:



Let me know what you all think.

PS Thanks again CutterWolf for the inspiration. (Hope I have lived up to your high standards)

Elmo, you have a freaking nice car. That trunk looks really good. I know it was a lot of work, but it obviously paid off. Did you make the trunk lid part also or did you buy that? BTW, I want to see pictures of the dash emblem you were getting.

Thanks Chronos, yeah a lot of work!! I bought the trunk liner, however, I think I could have made that myself.... but just one less project that I needed to think about!

As for the dash, I said to my wife that all I wanted for Valentines was a particular sticker.... and she go it for me! (A little concerned at how much she paid for it!!.... but I'm happy)
