Default Hatchback owners, info wanted

Anyone out there made your own cargo covers? I am intrigued, but don't want something that looks like total ***. I have a few ideas, materials are wood, or fiberglass, and carpet. Pics?

I've seen a couple factory, I've seen a few reproduced with carbon, but I want to see if anyone has made their own. Actually a picture of a factory one wouldn't hurt. I have a few ideas, such as a piece of string to pull it up, such as like in the back of an eclipse, or other such vehicles. Two piece with the hinge isn't a bad idea either.

good topic, I'm in. I need one bad for my hatch to cover up my goodies. Everyone is too proud of theirs, I'm not paying 100 bucks for a trim piece that's so little.

Well once I get some time around, I'll dig around and see what I can't make and take some photos. Maybe this can turn into a sticky if it turns out nice. I think $50 in materials is worth it, moreso that this can be a custom piece that I have made on my own, although a nice oem piece would be nice.

That's one reason as to why I was thinking of making my own.

I've had my tahitian green 91 hatch DX from day 1 and the only time someone broke into my car was to steal a cargo cover. The rear glass was shattered into million pieces just to steal the rear cargo cover. I was so pissed. It took years to find one at the right price and still in good condition.

A freind of mine got lucky and found a black one in mint condition(which I'm buying ) at the local pick n pull. It was real cheap too and even came with the side trays that hold it up. I have a blue one I'll be selling real soon in MINT condition. I'm pretty sure you could paint it....
