Does anyone have access to an OEM trunk they don't need/want or know where to find off a junked E60? I want the mold to be made from an OEM trunk for best possible fitment.

I'm also really interested what the side profile of the trunks looks like, every picture I've seen is a angle shot of it.
May have to purchase a new trunk soon because of my beta-link disaster last week.

The Ericsson one is sick but the lumma one looks like a blue nose put bull from the back. Tough decision to me. It really depends on if you have a roof spoiler or not. Knowing my crazy, daring self... I'd cut my plate to fit the size. All the cops really care about is the #s. Who cares if it is chopped up. Lol

I go for the lumma but it will cost a lot.
I would not pay more than $600usd for 1.

12-2-10 Update:

I have sourced 2 OEM trunks in pretty good condition. They are priced at $300 + $130 shipping. Can anyone find cheaper or willing to sell theirs if they have access to one?

If not, it would be great if I could get the interested parties to help chip in for the trunk. It is more than likely the first trunk to be made will be an Ericsson style trunk. I will do my absolute best to get the lowest price for the first group. There may be other GB's but I can't guarantee it will be the same price as the first batch.

I would like to get things rolling so we can see trunks sometime in January if not sooner!
