MMD Rear decklid and Plastidipped Rear Emblem

One of the last exterior mods I did was changing out the rear deck lid panel. One of the reason's I did this was the amount of finger prints the gloss black orginal one would attract from simply using the trunk.

American Muscle was one of the only places I have found to sell MMD items. Luckily they had a sale on MMD items last year so purchased there rear deck lid, and as well as their fog light delete covers.

Install wasn't too bad. Although a bit of muscle and courage to pull the oem one off was needed,as it was on very good and clipped in.

Pics don't show off the part really well, don't understand the first pic taken at night, see more of the tail lights than anything else, and the second pic is at a distance, in shadow, shooting toward the sun. Sorry, but I do get the blacked out part..

The factory panel is a high gloss black. He changed it to a flat black piece.

Agree it's hard to see without the original to compare to.

Just kidding. Odd thing about the Texas car is that the tail lights look tinted with the stock panel, and then the tail lights look stock with the blackout panel. Weird, or maybe its just me, eyesight does tend to drop off as you get older. lol Texas would be great, but you'd have to get a set of those Boss Hogg steer horns for the front of the car,
