Trunk Liner
I'm going to a shop today to get a final quote on a fiberglass (haven't decided between vinyl or painted) trunk lid with an iPad dock built in to it. Preliminary quotes were around $400. Does this seem overpriced? The shop does some amazing work, but obviously if I can get this cheaper somewhere else, I'd rather do that.

sounds fine...you plan on shutting the trunk and the ipad staying in? or is this just for shows?

Just for shows. iPad rides in the front with me, lol. I'm still contemplating a screen so I can hook up my Xbox. I could always connect the iPad up with a video out adapter.

$400 is a good price for a trunk lid fiberglass piece.

I say your better off setting up a screen so you can then connect the xbox and iPad to it.
I d really like to see this when you're done. Good luck with it

Go for the screen, that was what I was going to do. I don't do shows now, but when I did it was boring and sitting behind the car in a lawn chair playing some games can be fun and showcase car features.
