Allright, I finally got moving on this project. The flush panel is primed and ready to go. This time, I bought aerosol primer cans, and said "f*ck the WideShot."



I don't know if I'm gonna paint the flush panel, I'm considering upgrading subs: 3 sealed Xtants maybe.

I'm debating on whether or not to paint the grills on my amp rack... Here's a pic:

grilles? you mean air conditioning vent covers? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Actually its quite clever!

But it depends how you're painting the rack... paint it to match.

Yeah, I got the idea from Paul. I kinda liked them... what do you guys think I should do, paint them, or leave them white? The rest of it will be the color of the outside of my car... light blue.

well bondo them in smooth and paint em but leaving them white would be a nice contrast

definatly bondo them into the fiberglass and paint them to match the color of the box...

they just look retarded screwed down.

I'd have to sand, bondo, and sand each little blade on the vent, wouldn't I?

Maybe I could cut them out and put a different sort of grill in there? Any suggestions?

not really just the surrounding area or trim. that should give it the flush look or grill look with out the square look.

if u were to do that then just cut a trim ring and wrap them in speaker cloth

But would the paint stick to the blades if I didn't sand them?
