hi hompe and welcome to AF,
there are many ways to build a trunk. You could build the walls, sides and bottom out of styrene plastic, plastic sheets that you can cut and glue to the shape you need. Make templates from paper, transfer the shape to the styrene sheet and cut it out.
I would build the trunk like a box and then glue it in place with a strong glue.
You can buy styrene plastic sheets online or you could ask a local hobby shop.
Good luck

i dont know weather or not you are into this kind of detail, but you could add flocking to the trunk, to simulate the carpeting some cars have in the trunk.
good luck with your project.
