keep the system light...putting in heavy subwoofers into a car like that is a sin...
For me id keep it really simple as the engine plays all the music I want to hear !

That was the plan from the start. I'll be using Biaxial
fiberglass in all my layups to keep weight down and
as strong as possible. All fairing will be done with
microballoons and resin vs Bondo, all fastners will
be titanium vs steel. OK I'm just BS'n about the
screws.

Honestly if MBQuart made 8s that would give me
the low end I'm looking for I would use those over
the 10s.

First I really need to apologize to those of you who have
subscribed to my build. I know its likely the slowest build
on this board and for that I'm sorry. I was able to get some
new meds this week after my old dope really stopped
working. The blessed UPS man delivered my goods to-
day and by 4pm I felt like working on my kicks. I'm sure
many of you are my age and working at bench height
takes a toll on the neck. One of the meds I got today
really helped that, I'm grateful.

This update really isn't anything you guys haven't seen
before but its not yet documented in my build. I drew
up a tear drop shape for the Quart 4" and tweet. Cut
that out and drew out where the mid and tweet would
be located. It really looked too large so I reduced that
down quite a bit to a shape just small enough to hold
the drivers. These parts will be painted red (I think)
with the rest of the kick paint matched to the exterior
of the car. I took the factory kick panels out of the car
and took a mold of those. Again, nothing you guys
haven't seen. I had some issues with some old resin
not setting up so I went and purchased new. I had to
make up some hot batches to flash the old resin. I'm
quite glad this worked, I **** sure didn't want to re-
mold them. I hope this weekend I can get those molded
parts trimmed to near the shape they should be. I'll then
remask the inside of the car, place the new kick in and
bondo them for a more exact fit. Again, nothing you guys
haven't done. However, I will take pics of this process to
show just how cramped the working area and what lies
behind the panel. You'll see how very well made these
little cars are.

I've settled on a door panel design and am looking really
forward to getting to those. The pull handle, and all door
trim will remain black, the coverings will be a red leather
called "LOBSTER" with the part that I'm glassing being
paint matched (silver) to the car. It sounds really busy
but it should look pretty classy. If I don't like the silver I'll
paint them black. The thing is the silver look will be carried
to the inside of the sub enclosure and amp, processor rack.

Also, today I found my old IXOS 6chan RCA's that I may
cut up and use some nice Phoenix Gold ends. In the same
box was my old IXOS speaker wire. Now I have to talk my
nephew into taking my old power wire out of my old car to
match all the rest of the gear. That crap was like 6 bucks a
foot, I sure hope he proves me wrong and gives it to me...
You just cant find that stuff now.
