Can't believe I missed this looking good and can't wait to see the finish product also kind of makes me want to take the badges off of my grand prix as well.

Could I get a quick outline of the process? From the sounds of things it isn't too difficult.

Goo gone n fishing line..... I spray alittle goo gone near the top of the badge let it sit for a few seconds n the take the fishing line and move from one side of the badge to the other until its off then goo gone the rest of the residue off. Not a hard process....just take your time.

well the other day i put in "alittle" work and was able to trim up the excess fabric away from the box, sand it alittle, trim out the port hole and speaker ring and then i added another layer of mat and resin making it 3 total.... have about 1-2 to go on the outside then its onto the inside corners where i will do about 1-2 layers. also got my sound deadner, body filler, and paint gun in the mail as well as my skar audio comps. anyways here are some updated pics

ok so i started to sand this bad boy and did a test fit as well.... my only issue with the test fit was port issue. the big *** elbow i have doesnt go in place now. it did before i wrapped it so im thinking it might have shifted alittle during wrapping but not by much. so now i gotta see if i cant find a different less bulky elbow or i may have to step down to a 2" port //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif other than that everything is going good with fitment.

Just cut the hole bigger to pull the elbow flush. Don't go to a 2" port.
