Hardwood Floor in Trunk?
 
So, for a long time I've wanted to put hardwood flooring in my trunk.
Mostly because I like the "luxury" look to it.
Has anyone here done this before, or some tips?
I'm not very crafty with this kind of stuff, so tips on the best way to make it look good would be great lol

Pic: Similar to that when I bag my car.

okay now thats out of the way, it has been done. There is a guy on here who sells them last I looks. He makes them by hand and the price is not bad at all.

Oh cool. I would rather build my own to get the satisfaction of actually doing it by myself.
And I was thinking about doing that if I end up being good at it lol

Yeah I actually really liked the look of the darker color woods in the trunk he did. Post some pics if you build one I like looking at stuff like that

Find a piece of 1/8 inch veener that you like. Won't weigh much at all. Then cut to fit. It may cost some real $$$ for the one you want. Good cabinet plywood is expensive.

I can't wait to make jokes about how you like wood all up in your trunk :lol:

make an epoxy floor

Dude it's fucking simple to do. You have the perfect template. Just use the current floor mat you have.
Buy a sheet of fake hard wood for like $20 tops, small cabinet hinges, put them the same exact place where the folds are bam your done.

The same thing for the real wood.

Personally, I think it's 110% useless. Any shit you put in will slide around, scratching and scuffing the floor. Unless your an all show and no go fool, then by all means do it. I'll just point and laugh.

Do it. Just cut up a piece of that non-skid that goes under area rugs. You can use that if you need to load anything in there.

God damit I cant even make a joke my spelling is so bad hahahaha!! I am on my phone so that probably doesn't help. Well you get the point and that other ally is a little too old for me :iono:

If you do make it yourself, you might have to split it into 2 or 3 parts for it to bend and fit.
But I think you can build it yourself with a skill saw, sanding, wood stain and patience. Shouldn't be too expensive either.
