Default C-6 cargo partition

Well I have been wanting to make a cargo partition with front storage place for my GS,And I know you can buy them for around $130 plus shipping but I like to build things myself. So I went by Lowes and bought a 1x12x6' piece of pine ,made a template and cut it out sanded and here it is tonight I will seal it and tomorrow I will cover it with black auto grade carpet. This weekend I will make the storage tray for the front of it.

Looking forward to seeing your cargo compartment!
I have the commercial one and love the added compartments to keep smaller items from rolling around.
