i just bought a 98 civic that i plan to fix up and man...the previous owner was one dirty pig. i was cleaning for about an hour and i only got to this point (pics). the black..rubber..? is coming off and i can see the metal of the trunk. any of you guys have any idea on how i can restore the trunk back to normal condition? please dont say things like as "get a new car then" or "get off your lazy *** and clean" lol. just to answer the question for the hell of it, i have been cleaning for a long time under the **** smelling conditions haha. anyways thanks and sorry if the pics are unclear. let me know and i'll try to take newer ones.

Get some dry ice, a hammer, and a chisel. That'll get the stock sound deadening material freed from the metal.
