Don't tell me I'm the only one that installed a pull loop on the underside of the trunk lid

. Actually, I know one of the guys on the flex line that did the same thing

i have used the bowtie but usually i just pull down from the top. can't see any fingerprints or anything on white anyway so no big deal for me.

Oh yeah, man, it's very thoughtful. That allows your trunk monkey some control over his privacy, especially necessary when he has guests, voluntary or involuntary...

Folks, if it's that big a deal, use these... for closing the trunk, and whatever else you want...

During the walkthrough when I bought my car, the bowtie was recommended.

Spoiler.
That's what wax is for...

I, just like many others, use the bowtie. But unlike sombody said earlier, I doubt it will come off. And if it were to come off my dealer would take good care of that.
