Nice. I'm sure most of us are super gentle with the trunk anyway, I hate slamming mine for any reason.

Thanks for all the work you put into developing these, very cool.

There is very slight wobble when slamming the trunk from the trunk, little to none when slamming the trunk from the spoiler but I also noticed that the trunk actually shakes when I slam the spoiler so I think it could be a combination of both. However, I've slammed the thing a hundred times, drove around and into very bumpy potholes (the things I do for you guys!) and disassembled and the pieces are in perfect shape. No splintering or cracks or anything!
