- Wed Jun 30, 2010 8:40 pm #202673 Hey new member just bought my first eg and luvin it doing sum mods ryt now and just wondering if anyone knows how to flush the tailgate any feedback would be helpfull thanks

- Wed Jun 30, 2010 8:48 pm #202677 i have no idea what flushing is?? but if you mean shaving the tailgate its a combo of bondo and welding....extremly gay in my opinion

- Wed Jun 30, 2010 8:52 pm #202678 shaving then sorry its called flushing round my way thanks for the advice im still toying with the idea seen a few that have been shaved they looked pritty good

- Thu Jul 01, 2010 3:21 am #202725 more like pritty gay

this hatch would be pretty freaking sweet if it wasn't for the total faggotry of the tailgait. there is no excuse for such a hideous modification.

- Thu Jul 01, 2010 4:02 am #202739 ^^ sure there is, save weight.. are you sure that isnt a custom fiberglass piece or painted CF?


OP: what were you thinking of doing? post a picture of something similar

^^ sure there is, save weight.. are you sure that isnt a custom fiberglass piece or painted CF?

it probably is but it looks the same as a shaved tailgate

and what weight is being saved with a shaved tailgate? two tail lights, two plate lights, and a license plate?

im saying that there is an excuse, if that panel is paper thin fiberglass, saving weight on his strip car..

obviously shaving a hatch wont save weight...

yeah if its fiberglass its gunna be lighter but im talking about the look of it. not whether or not its fiberglass.

Dont do it. It looks dumb.
If you want to save weight, just get a carbon fiber hatch door.
