Not worth a ****e, almost 3/8 " high in the center and low at the corners!

Low on both sides ... I can push down in the center and it'll come up some



Any suggestions or has this been seen before??? I'll call Anvil this week and ask what to do.... that really sucks!!!


Thanks for looking ...

I repaired a couple of these by making kerf cuts in the underside bracing, clamping it in the correct shape and then bonding the cuts with panel adhesive. Not pretty but the only fix I could come up with.

As I've said before...that's the only drawback to carbon fiber I hate, that it's far too expensive to often not fit. Very beautiful though.

Yeah I know, I thought I'd be ahead of the game w an Anvil trunk, guess this thing is going back to them and I'll beat on the AMD one to get er to fit worth a shote!!!

Can you give some info on what black paint you are using for under the hood and engine compartment?

You bet, it's a single-stage I get from my local paint jobber, here's pics:

Update 7/30
 

Hey it's been sometime now ...but I set a goal and got my Raptor bed liner sprayed today cuz it's supposed to rain all weekend. I sprayed my Speed Tech inner wheel wells, the backside of the fenders and dropdowns, as well as my lower valence and header panel ... one coat and it looks great.

And, my Anvil trunk lid came in to replace the glossy one that fit like crap ....

I also received my trunk repair panel so I can cut out a fuel access hole and use the repair to fabricate a lid which will be nutsert with 10-32s. I'll undercoat and paint to match the bottom gray color and should alleviate the need to drop a fuel tank.

Here's some porn for y'all:

that was a lot of tape to cover all the surfaces from over spray ... thought I skinned a kangaroo!

This lid fits a little better .... the jury is out whether I send it back or mess with it to fit better!!!:confused59:



I also have my brake lines almost done, ordered -3 an hoses from Summit to mock up the lines and set the brackets on the frame ...
Thanks for looking ....

What did you end up doing to get your carbon trunk to fit better? I had to cut my carbon hood on the inner structure to get it to lay flat then repair it.

I didn't do anything, that is a replacement trunk in satin which I ordered instead of the glossy they sent me. Just goes to show the variations in manufacturing ... either made on Monday or a Friday :headscratch:
