Wouldn't it be great if....

...there was a replacement tailgate for the trunk -- something that would make our 4th Gen I30's look like 5th Gen?

I really, dislike that big, red plastic thing on my trunk!

I actually like the way it is. It sure beats having the plate holder on the trunk and hearing it rattle every time you shut the trunk lid.

Yup,

that rattle was one of the first things I noticed after I bought my I30.

Well, I didn't mean it to be exactly like the next gen I30. Ditto on the plate holder.

One of the things I did not like on the Accord coupe (circa, 1998-2002) was a similar strip of solid red covering the tailgate.

I guess I'll have to work my Photoshop magic to give you an idea of how I'd like my trunk to look.
