The thing i hate most about the coupe is the trunk with the old school trunk struts. I really like the new cars now with the trunks that use mechanics rather than hydraulics to lift the trunk. here is an example, its an accord.
 has anyone tried modifying the trunk to use this kinda mechanism? |

you would need to get appropriate hinges and weld or bolt them somewhere inside trunk area and completely eliminate stock hinges.
There is a system offered by company called autoloc. Pretty sure its spring loaded. There is also a universal trunk set for hondas that opens up and slightly back and operates based on a shock/strut system. -------------------- Captain Pessimist
