i have a coupe and i want to put a rear strut bar. but cant get to them. instead of having carpet in my trunk ive got plastic. i was wondering how i should go about withy this. should i just rip the plastic off or should i just cut a piece off to expose the bolts for the strut. did anyone else ever have this problem.

The slots make it easy for whenever you need to pull off the lineing. You won't have to remove the strut bar to remove the lineing.
