It would look even better if it was lower. I had a nice short trunk, but the wife was not impressed with the short backrest.
Now I went the other extreme. A great big expandable trunk (for 2 helmets and the kitchen sink). It comes off in literally seconds, leaving the original backrest (slightly raised). It's fun experimenting!
Here it is in the collapsed setting:
