That CF rear trunk is on Danny Cho's car, not Tool Pant's car. I've asked Danny about it before and he said that it was custom made for him. Danny has the turbo-style front light conversion so the front CF hood that he's using fits well but does not apply to the standard 986 with egg yolk-style lights.

Here's specifically what Danny wrote me about his rear deck lid:

"As for all the carbon stuff you have to be really careful with who you go with as far as quality. I got my hood and trunk custom made. The fitment is near perfect with no humps in the middle. ...... As for the trunk sorry to say but I am the only one in the world with it. LoL...perks of trying to be unique!"
