JL sub going in it?
if not, Paint teh Fi on their

No, I have the JL 1000/1 that will be hooked up to a Q now in that box. I was going to do the BL, but I am probably gonna get another car here real soon, and I don't plan on upgrading anything electrical in it.

Here is mine.. I just did it today.. Came out nicely

Pics dont do any justice.. It looks a lot better in person IMO.. Also in those pics, the sun is in the way so I can take better pics tonite when the sun is down..

But what did you use to paint those logos tho?

I just made a stencil out of a cardboard box and used it on the box..

Looks good. I just used some economy spray paint, since it was just a test run.

Yeah, I made a logo out of a sheet of paper. I printed the logo from the FI website, and cut it out with an exacto blade.

how does it sound?

Here's the paint on the box. I can't believe that "I" made the mistake of using a white primer with a DARK color paint. Well, the primer white bleeds through the Black paint badly. I should have know better and had my primer tinted gray, but oh well, life goes on. It will probably take about 2-1/2 coats of paint just to cover that white primer (I am only on the first coat). I used Zinsser primer and Valspar paint color "Kettle Black."

Next up, will be the JL and FI logo in silver on the box.

Hard to make out anything in those pics, can't see any detail.

Will have them in due time. My Q had a blown spider. Once it get's back from being re-coned, vid will be up.

 

[Qbenjamin 10+ year member]

Well, here's the JL logo. I jakked it up a lil bit by it not being centered, and the actual silver spray paint shows a film in the middle logo.

 

[Qbenjamin 10+ year member]

FI logo will be in the front, tomorrow. I am going to do it in white though.

Nice, I can't stay focused long enough to do a box in under 4 hours. I get side tracked by other things a lot.
