01 Silverado, 4 Sa-8s, AQ2200, DC POWER, & iPad 2

First off, as some of you know I had a build log on here previously but that was when I still had my blow through in my truck, ONLY reason I dont have it in any more is because I needed the bed for moving stuff back and forth to college so yeah, anyways, herrreee we go:)

anyways, heres how it looked when I got it

Still need to do more on the back wall now that the blowthrough has been removed and the panels have been rewelded in, kinda noisy. Currently theres two layers on the outer door skin, two on the inner panels, one-2 layers on the floor and some on the roof. I need to get some CCF and do a layer of that in the truck too to silence everything, anyone have any suggestions on what company to use or buy from?

tinted the tails, they came out good.

My mids and highs amplifier, Its a JL Audio Jx 360.4, solid amp, but just sold this a few days ago so that I could pick up a Alpine PDX 4.150 at a crackhead price.

Heres my current doors, only could find this pic and boy were they shiiitty this was literally my FIRST time working with fiberglass, you can see the airbubbles, etc. etc.. turned out pretty bad. Im going to redo them soon for my 2 sets of crescendos. But one postive thing was that these doors taught me ALOT and will help me significantly with building iPad dashes and doing more doors, and fabrication in general.. I've gotten alot better as you can see with the dash pics i posted above lol..

Sold all of that ish, and decided to change it up. From here on is now all my current equipment..
New AQ2200 with the plexi from @BlactimusCrime, will definitely be lighting this up with some LED's to show it off

This should help with keeping the voltage up, DC XP 270 from @dbeez, does 200 amps at idle, this one benches out at 280 amps max. , and about $1,500 worth of tools my dad gave me to help me work on my truck and audio stuff. I cant thank him enough, for how grateful I am for this.

MINT Alpine PDX 4.150, getting it for $150 on Craigslist in Minnesota thanks to @BrownVanMan. these go for $300 used usually so it was a good pick up, its minty too!

iPad 2 with wifi+3g, im not using a data plan though, only reason I got the 3g option is because it has a GPS chip in it. wifi model does not, so when it is docked in my truck, once I jailbreak it and get the $150 tomtom app for free, I'll be able to tether the internet from my iPhone 5 to it, thus giving me turn by turn navigation..

Nice so far. You planning on going all-out show truck, or going to keep it as a daily driver?
mix of both, i really want to clean the truck up, and make it atleast somewhat show worthy, the interior is about to change durastically once I get back to Dallas for Thanksgiving and Christmas break (I'm in college in Oklahoma) I will be redoing the doors, along with doing the sub box, and making an armrest built into it, the box/center console will house the gain control for my sub amp, voltage meter, maybe a SMD meter or two, and this

EQ molded into my old center consoles cup holder

but at the end of the day, the truck will be my DD..
