I have an 83 Z28 that I just put plastics in from a 87 firebird. The rear hatch plastic is for a hatch pull down unit. I dont have one, but I do have the brakets on the body for a cargo cover. I still have the cargo panel and now have realized that this is hitting the brakects and will not sit flush and work.

Should I cut the plastic or the body?

Or should I find a panel for a non power pull down car?

Or try and paint my original tan cover black to match my panels?

 

just cut the plastic but do it nicely and no one will notice

 

i would just paint the panel to match . then in the future keep my eyes open for the correct part . good luck .

 

if he could get the corect part that would be great but like he said just wing it for naow

 

Well, I still dont know exactly what to do with it. I have painted panels with some success in the past, but it always comes off when rubbed hard with something and is not very durable for the trunk area.

I also dont know if I want to cut anything. So I guess I will crack a beer and stare at it till something sounds like a good idea.

 

I am buying a set of plastics from a hatch pull down car. What doesent work correctly?. The plastics or the cargo cover

 

Cargo cover panels are specific. Either get rid of the flip down door or dye your existing panel to match the rest of the interior
