dude.. setups coming along nice NV. your subs freak'n huge!! does that top end of the sub touch your trunk?. n/e ways i'll check back often to see what else is next.

good.job.

Nice work. You got a lot done this weekend. If only I can be as motivated as you.

keep'em coming...

That's awesome.. can't wait to see it finished! Props NV!

Looking good! I have to agree with you on the feeling good cuz you built it yourself. The other thing is you know what should be where cuz you're doing it. It something needs adjusting, it's done!

Which MB's you running? 302 or 304's? Amp? You plannig on dynamatting the trunk? In any case...looks good and have fun!

In my experience, there are three kinds of people that take on work like this:

1) Those who figure it out as they go along, because they have already made up their minds that they can and will. (Such as the above).

2) Those that don't start, or hit a bump and give up, because they have already decided that they can't.

3) The people who do a hack job, but are oblivious to that fact, and hare thrilled that they did it themselves - so who am I to criticize? (Unless they ask me what I think, of course - then honesty is the rule). Those guys get good over time if they stay open to it.

This is obvi no hack job, looks pretty good. But if you're going to follow in his footsteps, your state of mind is the most important thing - not your experience level, but your approach.

g352nv,

Quick Q's about the Glass job (Anyone can jump in if they wish, as they are general about fiberglass application).

1) When you are putting the fabric over the original mold, what are you securing the fabric with to the mold?

2) When you are applying the resin and glass to the fabric, are you just applying over the end of the fabric and your original mold?

3) What prevents the original mold from separating from the fabric and ring side of the mold?

In all the sites I have seen talk about it, nobody ever details how they are attaching the fabric (unless there is wood to staple to), and nobody expands upon the application of resin over the fabrics and original mold.

If you made the original mold to fit into a space, the addition of fabric, resin, and glass would add to the thickness, so it shouldn't be a sealed tight fit anymore around the area where the original mold and fabric side meet.

Any elaboration would be awesome...and I appologize if this is in anyway a hijack of the thread.

Thank you.

You attach it with hot glue. It sticks like crazy glue! I can pull it as tight as I want and it wont come off. Once it on I brush many layers of resin over the fleece. Once that is try I spread resin and matt on the inside of the box. This is what will bond the two parts togeather really well. As for fitment, I didnt have a problem but if I did I would just hit the edges with a grinder.

Thanks man! I appreciate the response. Makes total sense. I was completely forgetting the ability to glass the inside and make the two peices bond together that way.

Again, thanks for the response. Your install looks like it is coming along great!

Well hell Im stuck! I cut out my amp and cap rack and with the subs facing outwards you cant really see the amps! I turned them around and it clears things up but the subs look blah! I dunno what to do here, Im going to have to think about this one! Any ideas?

Ok I got it! Its going to be like this. I just set everything in the trunk to get a feel for it. I guess tomorrow Ill weld up some brackets. The cap will go between the amps.

Good work.. I knew you would plow through that small road block.

Always amazed to follow your work.

Boy what a mess eh! Im going to have to do this in halfs because of teh fabric. Half today and half tomorrow.

looks awesome, wish you had a shop down here in SO Cal.

when your done will you be able to get to your spair.i see the area is open but you said your gonna put nos and have to fit the amps. and the g'z trunk isnt really that big
