[skeptikal Premium Member]

anyone that does fiberglass will say its ugly till its done ;P. i knew i couldnt wrap it all at once and i just have to sand a little more, actually it needed more structure anyway so it worked out. you'll see what it looks like when its done.

What are you putting in the panels, speaker-wise I mean?

Different looking , different is good. Did you use straight body filler to fill in the valley between the drivers ? Could be a weak spot with filler that thick if you did . Can't wait to see the end result //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

speakers that are going in there right now are some Power Acoustik xp2k-60c for now until my new speakers get here.

I think they are refering to the lack of smooth edges. Looks a little blocky , should flow smoother regardless of covering .

Look close , notice the difference ? These are getting indoor outdoor carpet and they still needed to be that smooth //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
