Default Trunk mat?

I took my trunk mat out to put my spare on a few weeks ago...and ever since..it just doesnt sit liek it did before..it looks raised, and it looks like it doesnt belong...im kinda pissed because it makes my trunk look liek crap...espcially because I plan on mounting my nitrous bottle there..anyone else experience this?

mines screwed up too. I took my spare out to drag race and didnt put it back in and threw some stuff back there. ive been driving around with an automotive sliding board, my front and rear calipers in a box, and 2 jack stands to flatten it out.

ever since i put my nitrous bottle is doesnt look quit right, just make sure your tire and every thing is in there properly and also by the seats there are slits that are cut out for the hinges on the seats make sure those are lined up right

I had the same problem after installing my shocks. I took everything back out and i am going to put dynomat in. I will have to fab something up to make the carpet lay better.

Let me know if you come up with any ideas.

you guys are having problems with the spare tire. Make sure its in there right. Just because it goes in doesnt mean its sitting correctly. You have to have the jack placed just right......
