Boot/trunk liner
One from left field.
Fishing season for me is close, just waiting for some decent spring weather to arrive, so far it's been the coldest spring I can ever remember here.
I haven't taken the F-Type fishing yet, but I took the old XFS and XFR fishing quite a lot, and years ago I bought a large piece of boot/trunk liner rubber and cut it to shape to fit the XFS (and later the XFR).
Well roger me sideways, this same piece of rubber fits perfectly in the hatch of the F-Type coupe! It's obviously quite a bit longer and wider than just the flat floor area, but that extra length and width goes up the front and sides beautifully.
So, pro-tip - don't pay a fortune for an F-Type rubber boot/trunk liner, buy an XF one for waaaay less and protect your boot/trunk even better!
