Re: [Chrysler300] Trunk insulation paper



Folks:

There is a quasi-similar roofing material that is sold in rolls that is the
closest thing I have seen to the original material.. When installed in
accordance with Jim's approach, and painted/colored to match the original,
it may be a good substitute.
