I had a friend with a molded spoiler and everytime we'd slam his trunk he'd get pissed haha.

Automatic closing trunk would be a nice mod/feature.

Number 1, people who mold kits to the body are idiots. The wind alone will crack it, you don't need bumps or vibrations. Only way I would even think about that is if it's a show car. If you have a molded trunk spoiler and you have friends that slam your trunk then they're idiots. They should know NOT to do that, as my friends are pretty careful with my car

Hmm, well can anyone recommend a good body/paint shop in the Phoenix area? I've been to 3 shops already, so I'm tired of driving around to get quotes!
