[QUOTE="yacob.naif, post: 2104108, member: 565696"] In the next month or so, once i get my bs sorted out with ebay, i'm planning on installing diy components, and namely, 10" midbass drivers into my doors. I've read everything i can about doing fiberglass, and i've made the realistic decision that i probably don't have the patience/skill to make them look very good. So i started thinking about alternatives, and what i came up with is an mdf baffle, that's in the shape of a snowman, with my 10", midrange, and tweeter mounted in snowman fashion, where all three drivers are flush on the baffle, and then sealed mdf rings inside the door, to create a sealed environment for the 10. It's hard to visualize, i know, but my main question was about upholstering the enclosure. I was thinking about using brush-on bedliner as a rubberized "paint" for my doorpods. The kits are around $90, and include everything i need. Has anyone ever used bedliner to cover enclosures before? I feel like it will look a hell of a lot better than spray paint, and will smooth the outside of the enclosure, as well as making it air/water tight. Anyone have any ideas on this? Good idea? Bad idea? I figure since the kit is probably enough to do an entire bedliner, i'll probably do a matching subwoofer enclosure, which i think would also look quite nice. Just wanted to get some feedback on whether or not this would be worth persuing? Thanks guys. [/QUOTE]
