Can you add some black rims, and paint it either gloss black, or flat black (maybe do something with the trim, if you're feeling froggy?)
If need be i can find the rims, just a generic black rim. Thanks in advance!

Check out the Shok 1/0. Good bargain wire.
And my experience with CCA is fine. I use the Shok CCA 1/0, running an audiopipe 3001d.

I understand where slug is coming from, a little bit. I wouldn't spend that much time and effort if i were just buying an item or items. If i were trying to turn a profit, sure i would..
I think the only advantage of "sniping" would be to not get into bid wars. Say i post... a max bid of $100, cause i want to get a super deal. And say, you come along a little later a bet $125. And then i sit and think... Well, i can do $150. Which would drive the price up.
I think where he is coming from is... Let the early bidder max his bid at $100. Within the last few seconds, throw $150 as a bet, betting over his $100. This would mean, you would automatically win the auction $1 over what the guy was ORIGINALLY planning to spend. Last second = lest time for him to think "hey, it's worth $150". You see?
Like i said, if i were trying to turn a profit, it may help a little. But for the recreational eBaying I (and many others) do, setting a max bid a day or two before auction ends, works.

Well, I guess first chance I get it's coming out and getting looked over. I'm kinda pissed. First "big" system, for me, and it's messing up not even 2 weeks after I get everything up and running. I think I've pretty much taken it easy on it too. Gain about 1/3, no bass boosting at all.
God i hate this feeling. RD audio's customer service :01nocomment8so:

Wow FedEx Called us. The guy was asking questions about us not being home and the tag that was supposedly left at the door. He said that We will get the subs tomorrow. They even gave me a direct # to call and they will call the driver and make him return to give us them. :-)
Probably some lazy ass driver trying to cut his routes a little shorter and marking a few packages that way. Meh. Hope you get them soon.

i have 10 or so feet of the Shok 1/0 CCA. Wouldn't be enough for the whole shebang, though.

Today, I came home early from work to surprise my son with a new mountain bike for his birthday. To keep it a surprise I carried it quietly up to his bedroom. As I opened the door I heard my son say "Oh man, you're gonna make me cum" to the nice girl he was on top of. He just turned 14. FML
this is not an FML lol its a "Dam good job son"
Must be a mother... lol. I'd have him a trophy.

I was reading some FuckMyLife's @ fmylife.com and a few were too good to pass up. So i had to show them to you.
I know some of them have got to be fabricated, but no matter, they are still funny as hell.
Today, I received my passport in the mail. They got my birthdate wrong. Then I picked up my birth certificate that I had sent in with the application. Turns out my parents have been celebrating my birthday on the wrong day for 16 years. FML
Today, my husband dropped me off at work. Ten minutes later I got a text saying "I just dropped the b*tch off I'll be there in a few baby, miss you". I asked him about it he said "I don't know what you're talking about Megan". My name isn't Megan. Not even close. FML
Today, the girl I've loved for the past two years finally expressed her innermost feelings for me. After a brief make out session, she asked me to "never leave her side". When I got home, my mom told me that my dad got a new job. I'm moving to the other side of the globe in two weeks. FML
Today, my teenage stepdaughters, as a punishment for refusing to buy them iphones, told my wife they saw me in town kissing an attractive blonde and grabbing her ass (all invented). She believed it and i'm single. I've been faithful and feeding the whole family for 10 years. FML
Today I noticed that my daughter was making funny noises which oddly ressembled the sounds my wife makes in bed. When I asked her what she was doing she said "I'm pretending to be mommy from last night." I was on a business trip last night. FML
Today, I texted my college boyfriend to tell him how terrible I felt about cheating. He replied saying he was so relieved because he had been cheating on me with a girl in his dorm. I was talking about my math exam. FML
Today, my first girlfriend of over 3 years left me for another guy. She said she's looking for someone who can financially provide for her in the future. The dude owns a T-Mobile kiosk. I'm going to medical school. FML
Today, it's my 18th birthday. My parents got me a $5 gift certificate to Itunes. It came for free with the iPhone they just bought my sister for her middle school graduation. FML
Today, I handed my PhD dissertation, which I have spent the past year researching and writing full-time. Last night, my roommate set an autocorrect on Word that changed "neither" to "nigger." I didn't notice until after I handed it in. My professor is black. FML
Today, my wife went to the hospital because she had been gaining weight recently and had missed her period the last three months. We thought it was menopause. Turns out she's pregnant. I've been sterile since the day I was born. FML
Today, the girl I love and I went to visit my parents out of state for the first time. My father grinned and acknowledged that she was a "keeper", at which she laughed and said we were "just friends". I was going to propose to her next week. FML
Today, I unexpectedly got my period at lacrosse practice. Our playing field is a 1/2 mile run away any bathrooms so I headed towards the woods with a tampon. Just as I was about to insert the tampon, the entire boys cross country team ran by... laughing. FML
Today, my parents yelled at me for 10 minutes without letting me get a word in edgewise for getting a 48 on my test. They took my phone, unplugged my internet, and took my car keys. They wouldn't listen no matter how many times I told them "It was out of 50". It actually was. FML
Today, my friend had to take my cat who has a tumor to be put down when I wasn't home since I couldn't bare to take him myself. I have two cats. He took the wrong one. FML
Today, I was getting sick of listening to the guy in the next room over getting nasty with some girl, so I called my girlfriend to see if she wanted to go get some food. Then I heard her phone ring. Through the wall. FML
Today, I was wearing my workout clothes that consist of short shorts and a tank top and was walking to my car. I then heard a bunch of men whistling and saying "Who's your daddy?" and "Why don't you come over here, cutie." As I got closer I realized that it was my dad and his friends. FML
Today, my white mother in law called our house phone. Since I'm Chilean and have a fairly heavy accent, she mistook me for the cleaning lady and scolded me for answering the phone. Before I could correct her, she said "this is why only white people should be allowed in America" and hung up. FML
Today, I came home to find a sock I previously used to whack off on my bed with googly eyes and a mouth drawn on it with a note that read "Because you can't find a real girl, I made your current one prettier, Love Mom." FML
Today, my tampon string was hanging from my bathing suit. My boyfriend thought it was a thread hanging from my bikini bottom. He publicly pulled out my tampon. FML
Today, my fiance's parents visited. I keep chickens for their eggs, and his parents own a farm, so we had a connection. They told us to leave the house while they cooked us dinner. When we returned, we faced two steaming plates of chicken. My chickens. I'm a vegetarian. They had names. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I have gotten three calls all day. The first one was my fiancee, saying he wanted his ring back. The second one was my best friend, confessing to me that she had been sleeping with my fiancee for the past three months. The third was the dentist's office singing me a happy birthday. FML
Today, I opened my mail to find my Brown acceptance letter. Excited, I showed my dad who just laughed and said 'what, it's not like it's Harvard'. No one in my family has ever gone to college. My dad didn't even graduate from high school. FML
Today, I was fooling around with my girlfriend for the first time. She put her hand on my penis over my jeans and said "Get hard for me." I was hard. FML
Today, for the first time ever, a woman saw my penis. I am 30 years old. The woman was my doctor. She snorted to cover a laugh and apologized. FML
Today, I went to meet my girlfriends parents for the first time. I accidently drove past their house the first time, but saw the whole family outside waiting to meet me. I pulled a U-Turn and heard a thud. The whole family watched me run over their dog. FML
Today, my father asked me if he could borrow my electric razor because he wanted to "surprise mom later". Anxious to see him without his life-long beard, I willingly agreed. About half an hour later he exited the bathroom. Beard fully intact. FML
Today, my husband came home from work angry. He started yelling about how much he hates the neighbor's kids and that he never wants to have children. I was going to tell him I'm pregnant tonight. FML
Today, I overheard my mother and sister talking so I stopped to eavesdrop. I recently enlisted in the Marines, and they were talking about what they would do with the money if I died. FML
Today, my boyfriend handcuffed me to the bed, naked. Someone pulled the fire alarm, and my boyfriend couldn't find the key. So he left me, and the Resident Advisor found me. The fireman had to cut the chain. FML
Today, I found out that just because your boyfriend asks you to marry him doesn't mean that he will show up at the wedding. FML
Today, my house got broken into. My brand new laptop was stolen, along with my flatscreen TV, digital camera, external hard drive and some clothes. Wanting to drown my sorrows in the Ben & Jerry's Phish Food ice cream in the freezer, I opened the door to find that it too had been stolen. FML
Today, I was going down on a girl. When I looked up she was texting. FML
Today, I came home early from work to surprise my son with a new mountain bike for his birthday. To keep it a surprise I carried it quietly up to his bedroom. As I opened the door I heard my son say "Oh man, you're gonna make me cum" to the nice girl he was on top of. He just turned 14. FML
Today, my dad told me he has been dating my boyfriend's mom while I was away at college. They have gotten pretty serious, and are thinking about getting married. I might be dating my stepbrother. FML

Paint it like mine. But with a white/bright orange combo replacing the silver/blue i have. I always kicked myself in the ass for not going white/orange.

I haven't been on the forums for sometime.. When I do get on here I normally browse the forum in search of new information and updates on products. Well this particular time I got on a week ago it was to post up some stuff I want to sale. I have been a member on this forum for several years.. I don't need a smart ass mod to tell me that I do not know how to read. I know how to read, in fact I read very well. I just don't understand why as a mod he had to go about it the way he did... I know I am ranting here but stuff like that makes me not even want to be on here.. Karmania or whatever the heck his name is needs to learn some online etiquette instead of being a DICK...

Well, because car shows and SPL comps are a niche market and dont get alot of exposure. (local shows are just that, local exposure)
Its not worth it for us to give out full sponsorships. It was worth it 10-20 years ago when the market was being built, but those days are over.
You can however, find certain manufacturers that give out competitor discounts and positions on a team. This is very close to being setup as a dealer, and the larger the company, the more difficult it is or impossible if the company is large enough. Unless you can offer mainstream exposure back to the manufacturer. i.e. a spot in a magazine, a showing on television or a movie.
A good example is Chip Foose and Arc Audio.
Yeah i see what you're saying. And i'm brand new to car audio man, i can't tell a cone from a magnet it seems. I just wanted a little information on how shit works - i went with my brother to a few local shows and really liked what i saw and figured it's time to snag into another hobby.

that is how it works
issue with car audio is that everyone is willing to do that, and unless you have some sort of qualification or history a promise is not enough for a sponsorship. You may be able to save a few bucks and get a homie hook up, but you wont get sponsored. Yet. You kinda have to do something to prove yourself. Like build a car that wins events at spl or sql, or get in a magazine. Or pull a steve meade and get a million views on youtube or something.
at the end of the day you have to offer something to the company worth more to them than the products they would give you are.
Yeah that makes sense bro.

I'm a sports fisherman, and the way sponsors work in sports fishing is - Academy equips us with top notch shit (rods, reels, anything with ACADEMY written on it) just so we wear academy printed Columbia's and Visors when the cameras start rolling.
We're also sponsored by various hook companies, fishing lines, fighting chairs, even the braided lines on our skiff crane is sponsor-given, all in return to mention that we successfully use their product.
Now i understand the concept - Viewers see what brands we're using and being successful with, and hypothetically, that makes them buy the product.
I was wondering - do car audio companies sponsor nearly the same way?
How many of you are sponsored, and how has your sponsor helped you?
I was thinking - would AudioQ give me a discounted price (sponsorship) if i flaunted my Camaro to some local shows and SPL competitions with AudioQ equip, some AudioQ vinyls, and boasted their product?
I know none of you can answer for AQ, i was just wondering if that was the way car audio sponsorships work, and how might i go about getting sponsored?
