d@mn that is looking sweet as hell. I do not have much experience with vynil so you are going to have to fill me in on how it works. Is it like heat shrink or something like that. Or do you have to like stich it around the tight curves. Or is it like really stretchy.

contact cement and a heat gun is alll you need. i'll tell you a secret, theres a big ugly seam in the back, but you cant see it anyways. you just heat the vinyl and stretch over the curves and corners.

so if is pretty flexabile then?

I might try it on my next fiberglass project.

What does it usually run for a yard of the stuff. Or where did you get it. Like joann fabrics?

 

[bcarpenterfhl 10+ year member]

i got it at the car audio shop i work at for free. i believe it usually runs for 7-10 dollars a yard.

sweet. I might have to get me some.

So what monitor did you finally go with?

 

[bcarpenterfhl 10+ year member]

it's a 7 inch one by microvision. i know its not the most credible company, but it is certainly the best monitor for $250. you can see it at every angle. i get it for $150 because that's what the shop pays for it.

got to love employee discounts.

But is funner being the dealer.

Sorry i never got around to getting pics of my power acoustik one.
