Challenge E92 Trunk Installed!

M3 996 · 03-22-2010, 10:57 PM

My car is over at GT Motoring now getting some new upgrades for spring. One of the new items being installed is the Challenge E92 Carbon GT Race Trunk! I bought the version that is 100% full carbon inside and out, ALL layers, no fiberglass filler. It even has a little carbon Kevlar on the inside you can see.

I took a few pictures when I stopped by a few days ago. The trunk lid was being test fitted on the car before paint; fitment was spot on and every bit as good as OEM. I had a chance to lift up the lid before installation, and it is mind blowing how light this piece is. Did I mention the top notch quality?

You can really see the craftmanship that went into the construction of this lid.

The lid should get painted in about a week or so, even if it will be a shame to cover up such a great piece. In any case, stay tuned for additional pics. I’ll post some up after paint and some other mods are completed.

From the angles you provided, I like it a lot! It's more subtle in the way that it doesn't go as vertical

drft92 · 03-22-2010, 11:04 PM

My favorite trunk out there right now! Beautiful...Good Luck

mexicanmike · 03-22-2010, 11:05 PM

That looks great!!! Very slick, not to vertical, looks very unique.

Vorsteiner is not bad... just not the look I was going for...

amk6453 · 03-23-2010, 12:27 AM

looks good!!

sehrgut · 03-23-2010, 12:29 AM

I really like how this trunk flows so good with the lines of the car. Spot on!

ooowowizstev · 03-23-2010, 01:01 AM

Nice trunk!

JayeJaymes · 03-23-2010, 01:04 AM

looks great, but even better when it gets painted , keep us posted man!

Green///Hell · 03-23-2010, 01:36 AM

I really like the Challenge trunk, plus it's so lightweight in you can carry it with a finger and it's still strong

I like the Kevlar bracing and you can see it under the trunk. I would try not to paint that...why Haven't I seen you around

Addicted2Boost · 03-23-2010, 02:25 AM

looks good!

Maseroche · 03-23-2010, 02:25 AM

I like how it follows the contours of the M3 more than the Vorsteiner.

MrHarris · 03-23-2010, 02:51 AM

Looks great but I wish it was more angled to provide more downforce like the ZCP spoiler.

Aesthetics I think this one looks better than Vorsteiner.

GTAutoConcepts · 03-23-2010, 03:22 AM

it looks like the ac schnitzer e90 trunk spoiler molded to the trunk

T89 · 03-23-2010, 05:04 AM

Looks good. I like it a lot

xquisit · 03-23-2010, 05:50 AM

Nate@IND · 03-23-2010, 06:58 AM
