US car tool mini tub kit.

Update here is the mini tub kit with paint. I had the body guys clean up the seams. I think they turned out great! I don't think may people will notice they've been tubbed, and that was the goal!
 
That turned out great. I'll be attempting that in my kids car first, then in mine.
 
Excellent results. I be proud if it was mine.

Awesome job, if I were not looking for it, I don't think I would notice!

Looks great
 
So this will give you a idea of the width. I had flattened out the lower trunk lid bracket to weld back in place, but I could see my brackets were to close together. 39 7/8 as opposed to the 40 3/4 it was originally. So I trimmed the recess in the middle out allowing me to push the brackets out to where they were supposed to be. And it looks pretty good also I think.

Great attention to detail. The PO did my tubs and they're fine, but not nearly as clean as yours. He moved the hinge brackets inboard that same 3/4" to 7/8" you mentioned. The hinges did still work, but the torsion springs would not mount properly and constantly slipped off and bound the mechanism up.

Great work!
 
I had to take about 3/8 off the end of the torsion springs for clearance. I only open and closed it 5-6 times but seemed to be ok.
