Very nice build here....Looks like it's a fairly slow process....Almost a month since you started. I love the detail....I was considering doing a rear deck cut out too....Cannot wait to see the finished product...

nice job so far man.

dude ive never done glass work besides shaving locks off and shit any comments on how to do better on it are EXTREMELY appreciated

thaks for the kind words and it will slowly get done i am not just doing the audio on this car so it will be a slow process and i want things done right the first time so it may take a while but it will be perfect in my eyes when done

alot of stuff going in the motor and a completely brand new suspension front and back are coming soon

still need some help with the bandpass design if anyone wants to help there also

4th order blown thru the rear dash i have 4 re MT 15" or 4 mmats 3.0 12"S TO USE WHAT EVER WILL BE LOUDEST.
