I'd say yeh in most cases. But I flushed the boot of my car on photoshop jus' to see how it looked, but i wasn't feelin' it, the car has all standard bodywork and it didn't look right to me. I deffinately wana get it de-badged at the back tho.

I'd get some pictures posted up here and see if anyone can flush the boot on photoshop for you so you can see exactly how your car would look.

I'd deffinately recomend one with a body kit. Try this link if you can't find a good enough body shop to do the job for you.

The company sells "flushed-boot skins" which is basically a panel that gets applied to your boot making it look flushed. Personally i'd only go for welding a metal plate n filler etc. like Danvtr_9, but if you can coz the skins can be guilty of warping and cracking.

Good luck tho.

cheers thanks for doing that for me.
Love da car by the way.

dont go for the boot skins they are shite and a cheap way of achieving a smoothed look! i heard off here someone with a mate who had one on his punto and when he leant on it, the skin gave way and snapped in the middle! u'll end up paying roughly the same anyway as u have to but the skin, have it fitted and then have it sprayed!

id have it done the right way 1st!

edit: * buy not but

yeah i prefer to have it done like that instead of having a sheet of plastic over the top.

Yes!

Think it looks very good!

NO ! to the boot skin.

9th March 2005, 19:32

I'd say yes,get it done.
AL that's a wicked back end. You gonna get a rear diffuser or somethin, think it would complete the rear, and also visually lower the back too. Cool car tho

Some sort of diffuser soon to come yes.. will look great !
