Default Anyone Using Mugen Tailgate Fasteners?!

As the topic says.. Looking to pick up a Carbon Kevlar Trunklid and really am interested in using the Trunk Fasteners. Just wanted to see how people mounted them and the applications they're on. As well as the quality. Thanks



Other brands welcome too


Figured for search reasons i'd post all pictures found here:

i was looking into getting those fasteners for the hatch on my EK, but i realized there is no where to install it to. the hatch is never right next to the body, and i wouldn't really want to fasten it to the bumper, because hte bumper moves and isn't solid..

make little brackets for behind the bumper so it kinda sandwiches the bumper between the fastener and mounting point
