Spent nine hours on the SIL's Nissan yesterday, and got him back on the road. The bulkhead was more severely damaged than initially thought, but we were still able to get it back together and looking reasonably presentable. Actually, it came out quite well, to be honest. With the trim inside the trunk installed, you cannot see any of the damage. There's no wind noise or whistling, so the trunk appears to be sealing well enough. The next rainfall ought to be fairly telling. I had to cut into the trunk lid to install the factory backup camera, but that wasn't really too bad. The final thing to install is the spoiler, as it has the third brake light in it. Might paint the parts to match this summer, but that's not necessarily a priority for this high-milage driver.
