man u just cant put a damn motor in a 11 dollar flat rate box. there isnt enuff room for good padding. that is the guys fault for being such a dumb ass. no sympathy im sorry u gotta know heavy shit seems to always get beat up. this happened to a buddy he had bought 2 DD G motors and one was misaligned had to get it fixed by dave at PSI were he got his motors built to 18"s

i want a router and yes maybe next season ill redo them and have that 8" SS mid bass that i wanted to do in the first place. yes i would loved to have counter sunk them! if u want to lol...i went into this kinda blind for what i was gonna do with shape and placement. what really inspired me was seeing steves vid and him doing all the work he done.

i changed up my planes from doing satin paint. instead i used rubberized under coat on the whole doors to give it a not so plain jane look. after that i used fleck stone paint with white speckle. (black granet) i like the way it looks but i have to give it another coat cuz i want more of the white speckle in there.

this is of course after sanding it the first time. them using filler putty to fill in all the low spots. this is after 3 times of sanding and refilling in the low spots damn this part took sum time letting the putty dry resanding over and over. started out with 60 grit and went to 100 grit, finally sanded with 220 grit for the extra fine sanding. after sanding put the last coat of finishing primer was gonna vinyl the panels then thought about tweed but said the hell with it cuz it came out better than i thought. so just straight up painting them will look good.

ok here i didnt have my cam for the fiberglassing, but its there under the bondo. 3 layers thick of 5 mil woven strips i cut from a big sheet. here i was just test fitting the comps to see if there flat all around the mid and it was a bit off on the bottom right corner. i used more bondo raise it up flat. here i spayed black primer on it for when i sand them down the low spots would really stick out.

this is my first ever time fiberglassing and doing sumthing like this. ive seen ppl do glassing but never helped just watch. so dont laugh to bad but i think i did a decent job. i had to change it up, i was gonna do a 8" SS mid in each door and redone it for dual 6.5" comps. used sum felt from jo anns fabrics to put over the MFD rings. sprayed it down with 3M super 90 to hold it down with. mixed up resin to coat the felt and give it a hard shell to start to lay the fiberglass down. put 2 coats of resin and did the inside of the doors were felt was showing.
