Question Masking the trunk

OK ... ive seen it a only a few times on the 240 and i really think it looks good so i wanna see if i cant do that to mine granted its fairly ez and not ridiculously expensive. What im talking about is masking the trunk to match body color (between the corner tailights, and around the reverse lights) ... check out this pic to see it (this also has conversion on the tailights too, but ive also seen it w/o the additional conversion i'll post that pick when i find it)


How do you do this ? Where can i find parts(if any) to do this ?

custom made. Overlay some fiberglass, prepare it to paint and then paint it. A custom body shop will probably be able to do this for you.

you can go to www.jspec.com and shoot sam an email. he had a fiberglass center peice that replaced the center panel or went over it dont remember. It is sold already but he might be able to point you in the right direction.

Eh, I think it looks alright, although I like the original look of the lights... It reminds me of the Skyline taillights.
