if you're a male and dont own power tools already go have a *** change. keep fetching and being dense in order to have the last word... you're not quite there yet.

LOL I bet I had my first set of kick panels before you had your drivers license douche bag:laugh: In fact my little set I just made last year cost more than $25 and that was just in resin.

If your kick panels are weak and flimsy and you use really thin material you fail. I can stand on mine and they do not break. The cloth you use should absorb a GOOD amount of resin. Plus if you do not know wth you are doing and want something that looks good + matches the car there is nothing wrong with q forms at all. Might get ragged on if you compete with them but I would go Q form route over door locations as a daily listener.

so a guy thats early 20's that lives in an apartment and is a college student should have a garage full of tools? you are retarded.

OP, I had my comps in stock location, deadened door, and ive owned the q forms and i must say the only thing i found is a little less midbass. granted i did nothing to reinforce them nor did i use the polyfill that came with them so maybe that would of helped. i didnt like how much of my floor it took. i lost my dead pedal and had to keep my foot in the same spot at all times.

check ebay, they arent as expensive

a thin layer of resin and bondo/body filler is still stronger and cheaper than q-forms. buy a pair of q-forms and stand on them, point is your going to end up buyin materials to reinforce the q-forms anyways so just build your own kick panels.

i really don't see how one can spend less than 25 dollars to make a pair of kicks when they have nothing to start with.

i fiberglass a lot. i have spent LOTS of money in cost of materials.

i would like to see you generate this list of needed supplies with their price for each material to make a complete set of kicks for under 25 dollars.

maybe i should have been more to the point for the crowd of dense people that always seem to appear.. im sure this "college student" has a father(or male parental figure), that owns tool's. lets go one step further, im sure he knows someone with tool's he can borrow.

would you then like me to calculate how many more pairs of kicks i can fabricate with the left over material then divide the cost between each set? in that case im sure its averages out to less than $25.

Q forms will bend fiberglass breaks plus q forms are more contoured to fit better than any first time shot at making kick panels novice I have ever seen..and I have seen plenty of good novice self installed systems in my day. Q forms you do not have to worry about angles or aiming or looking symetrical in the car + they match. If you build a set of kicks that have a floor base you would easily burn through 2 14.99 quart bottles of resin and not have any left over to do the rest unless you like weak and thin stuff.

do you think 97 accord kicks are the hotness right now to have him mass produce them?

do you think he has the patience to mass produce kicks for people?

have you personally started producing kicks for people that pinpointed your theory that it will bring his cost down to 25 dollars?
