aligning trunk!!!

jce92 · 04-14-2013, 09:22 PM

Guys i bought this awesome trunk from Tom a month ago and took it to local body to install it for me. Well... its misaligned took it there few times to realign it for me and it always seem one side is wider than from other side. The owner is blaiming it on "aftermarket" trunk. But its JLmotoring and ive seen it perfectly aligned on Toms car. Can anyone out there can help me aligning this trunk?? Looking at it everyday is driving me nuts!!

Just bought a CSL trunk from JL-Motoring. Not sure if I will have the same problem but how did you go about aligning it? Perfect fitment?

Suggestion is if they give u bs like they cant do it cus its aftermarket.. tell them to go eff themselves and show the picture of picture or trunk on other members car or mine if you havent done so yet.
