This should be an easy one ((smile)). The trunk lid surface on my newly acquired 97 850 is a bit discolored; not sure if it is from a faulty or otherwise bad paint job from a repair, or that factory paint is fading (unlikely, because the rest of the car has excellent finish and clearcoating). In any event, I've spied a donor, same color (turquoise) in a wrecker yard, and am wondering what the procedure for removal of the trunk lid would be? Obviously I'd have to have the trunk lock changed over after (if) replaced, but I am interested because it's an uncommon color and I may not get the opportunity again if someone otherwise damages the trunk lid while it's in the boneyard. It sure would make things look nice back there if I could replace it. As usual, thanks.
