so instead of a 8 inch long gap on the side, which you cant see from the rear, you'd rather have a 2 foot long gap running straight back and down?
doesnt make sense to me.

It will look like just about every other luxury car and like the 3 and the 7 series trunk lid. Makes a lot of sense to me.

I found those two samples using Google. I have a 535xi and have never posted any pictures of it. Why do you want to know, Gene?

The owner of that e60 is on another forum, that pic is in his sig. I was just checking to see if you are him, and as stated, you are not. The owner is located in socal and close to me, for a second I thought we were neighbors.
