That is the nicest resto I think I have ever seen on an e30.  I'm amazed.  Also amazed how well the engine bay paint came out without pulling the engine... wow, that's all I have to say.  Going to make one of those trunk liners you made too, see how that turns out.

What did you use to make the trunkliner?  I was thinking fiberglass and then wrap with carpet but if there is an easier way... lol I'll take it.  Yours looks really thin... is it made of foam or???

You could always use the factory one and modify it for the larger toolkit.
