    get the J-Spec/E-Spec reflector piece that fills in that area

    or

    A little bondo, a little sanding and a little painting

      IIRC, Bizob is the only current member to have this process done, and either i am assuming because of his bodykit groupbuy trunk lids were fiberglass... that his would have been fiberglassed as well, or like daryl said, the bondo king went to town on that puppy. ask bizob, but my personal recommendation would not to bondo such a large ass piece of material as the picture of that crap hardening and cracking apart is stuck in my head. a bondo'ed area of such thinkness would take forever to harden. good luck

        if you were to bondo, in which i would not recommend you would have to layer it on which would take forever.

        the way to do it is to remove you center licence plate thingy and take it to a local tin/sheet metal shop and get then to cut and fit a peice of sheet metal for the trunk where the garnish was then weld that puppy in, grind the welds flat then bondo it with fine haired bodyfill, then sand till smooth

        i would imaging it would cost you in the area of 200-300 bucks for all labour and part included, plus or minus if you choose to do it yourself or not
