Trunk design, has anyone ever made a custom platform for the trunk? Options

[chacha]

Anyone ever customize the back of their trunks? the trunk bed that is to be exact? i want to fabricate something that would fit and snuggle nicely to the platform of our trunk so that it flushes nicely in to give better support than the weak carpet and thin cover for the spare tire. anyone has a picture or ideas of how they would have done it or if they have done so? I have a large amp and i removed the spare tire...it wasn't a good idea and the small piece that covers the spare tire is broken in half, so there is no support.... I hope i am clear...

Im not sure i totally understand, but from I read your wanting to make a false floor for the trunk. So that it covers the whole floor to better support the items in your trunk.

If this is right, then take out your trunk carpet, lay it down on a piece of MDF, then draw around the carpet. Then use a jigsaw (electric saw) to cut around the shape leaving you with a perfect piece of wood to cover the trunk floor.

Then if you choose, you can build up from that to make your own housing etc for the amp. But that is left up to your imagination

If this isnt the answer lol, then post up what you mean and ill help if I can.

i think you got what he means... imo, if you already have the spare out, when making the floor sink the amp in there nicely to make better use of the space you have, you can get some plexiglass and put some neons in there too, if you go the plexiglass route.. id also get some clear contact paper to keep the plex from gettin scuffed n scratched if you actually use your trunk from time to time

doing such a mod is also going to add significant weight to an already heavy car, but since you have a system i doubt thats a concern
