OK, I took it to the paint guy. I don't have enough time to get it GREAT. It looks OK. For my first time I think it turned out decent. It is not good enough to go with a dark color so I am going with metalic silver. Even with that it is kinda rough. If I had more time before SEMA I would spend more energy on it. Thanks for the support guys. I will post a couple pics when I get it back. If anyone is at SEMA, look for me in the Morrete USA booth. North Hall.

I put a crazy thick layer on in the pics cuz there were some pretty high spots with the Glass & I wanted the flexability to sand as I please to shape certain areas. I spent a bunch of time sanding with power sander & 100 grit disc. I did 2 thin layers after the one fat one. For anyone thinking of trying one of there, IT IS HARD! You have to be prepared to put in a ton of time. At least if you want something nice. I should have started smaller & worked my way up. That being said, it was a great learning experience. It will be a while before I try that again.

I like the sanding block much better than elec sander. I think its more exact and you can get more off using the block.

 

[NhustlaR 10+ year member]

with the block theres a lot more room for error, you get that electro or pneumatic going and watch out, one bad move and youre back to rebondoing //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/blush.gif.99bc659ee2012b7d826165e26fb5eebe.gif i need to get some flex disks for my pneumatic, anyone know if they sell them? but good job for your first box bro

Btw, it was only $40 at Home Depot. That Wal-Mart price is way too high.

Well, I'm running mostly MA Audio setup. I am using a Fosgate to run the 6.5 separates (Model: MA629C). 2 Mono amps (MA Model: HK1000D's), One for each of the 2 12" (Model: MA1200XL). These will be in the box. They are Chromed.

As far as space, well, I kinda guessed. It will probably be a tad on the small side. Oh well.
