Lightbulb Gutted the trunk.

Im weighing my car in a few days so i decided to take everything out. First off i took the bose system out and it looks pretty shitty with the carpet not filling the entire trunk. How would i even go about getting a fit piece of carpet for that space?

So anyways i took my spare and jack out (knock on wood i never get a flat so that was probably a dumb idea but oh well) and ive never actually looked at the spare before, but to my suprise it was an enkei rim.



This confuses me because supposedly the previous owner was an older lady. Why would an older lady have 1 enkei rim as a spare? Unless all FDs have a spaer enkei haha.

Find a non Bose carpet in the classifieds, on this forum. They are hard to come by though.

Yeah, I've got the cool yellow enkei too. Came stock. Lightweight. stands out and reminds you to get the messed up tire repaired/replaced.

Don't feel dumb. I think most of us learn something new about our cars all the time. I've had mine for 2 1/2 years now, just last weekend I found out there's a light on the inside of the hatch... I learned about it when a fellow FD owner came over and said, "Dude, guess what I found in the hatch of my FD!!??"
