Changed Up My Door Panels Again

[mlstrass 5,000+ posts]

Just wasn't feeling the Vifa's mounted down so low and off axis. Before giving up on them I decided to do some quickie PVC angle mounts which left me with a nice hole in each door pod. I wasn't about to make new ones, so I came up with another way show I'm an AA fanboi //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Went with the blue theme since it matches my HU and bass remote knob. Looks pretty cool at night, not that I really care as I'm more about the sound and the Vifa's are 100% better up high and more on axis.

Here's a few pics for your amusement. Bring on the ricer comments //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Pictures really jacked up the colors as the silver/gray trim ring is the same friggin paint as the AA logo...

Looks sort of like the bat signal. Maybe with a brighter light I could shine it in the sky and the caped crusader would appear.

6yo eXcelon takes a few minutes for the blue controls to fully light up, but I didn't feel like waiting. And I love how the bottom white part showed up pink.

Pass tweet in it's new home. Still thinking about the Seas Neos up in the sail panels, but I'll give these a few weeks in their new location.

I'm 2 1/2 hours from Kakauna/WIR, so if you want to drive down sometime let me know.

how comfortable are you having no speaker grills on any of your components?

VERY comfortable with myself and the GF, but the few other passengers I've had in the car get a "friendly" warning to pay attention getting in/out. 99% of the time I'm riding solo, so it's all good.

Besides if I don't trust them that much I'll make em ride in the back seat //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Building a box this weekend and going down to Byron to race on Sunday. Next weekend would probably work. Shoot me a PM and we can set something up...

Also not sure you really want to do 2 sets of tweeters, but it's your car...

Beautiful, it looks like you covered up that hole very well and even made the door panel look even better. I love it!!
