fear of pressure messing up the mechanisms of the opening and closing

pics sorta make it look bad, yes theres a little gap at the top, but the flash makes it show alot more than it really does. its the best i could get it!

the drywall screws will be replaced with screws with nicer heads on them tomorow, i just put those in now to hold it so the glue will dry. i really didnt want any glue at all. and i had to have the wood 2 pieces, thats why you see that seam, again the flash shows it more than it is. once all the amps are in there, you wont really see any of the imperfections, although there isnt many.

this was the 2nd time covering the trim panel...attempt 1 failed. LOL.

what could i use to CA glue around the edge of the trim panel, like leather piping from a seat or something?

these pics do it more justice. i replaced the screws with some nicer ones, not exactly what i wanted, but theyre black, and look better than a drywall screw, so they're fine. once the amps and everything is in, it wont be as noticeable.

also got some black leather piping, like the kind you sew into the edges of a seats upholstery. gonna run that around the boarder of my trim panel, to cover the few gaps that i do have.

what you guys think?

the piping, i got 10 yards, it was only .30 cents a yard lol

I think it'll look great with that on it. Nice work.

i have an idea of how i wanna do the actual amp rack, itll be in suede to contrast the vinyl, which contrasts the suede headliner, lol

for the floor.....suede or vinyl??
