Thanks guys! The wife is comfortable, just got the "juice", shes making progress, just trying to relax!
-
Thanks bro! We are our suite, getting checked in! We are anxious for her arrival!

A good collision shop could easily blend your hood to the fenders. Trust me on this, plus if you spend a little extra, they may even buff the whole car as a package deal.
Most collision shops have a UV light color matching machine, that when you press it to a buffed flat surface, it will read the different pigments in the paint a come up with a virtually identical color match in which you would spray the hood and blend the tops of the fenders.
Because of the edge of the fender and the slight boxiness, you will hardly see a difference in the color if any.
Ive been painting cars for years and this is actually a pretty easy blend because of the body shape!

Lucky for me I have my son, so the odds are in my favor, because of the combined age, lol!

I know I havent been active with my build on the Sable for a while, been focusing on the race car for the season, but as of tomorrow morning that will also be put on hold. Which in all actuality isnt a bad thing considering the circumstance.
Tomorrow morning my wife and I will be heading to the hospital @ 7 am so that we can start inducing labor to welcome our newest member of the family and future audiophile!
My daughter Raelyn Alexis will be soon gracing us with her arrival and that is all that matters!
(but dont get me wrong....... I will be back building in no time)

Oh, for future reference when making molds, you can use wax or wd40, but if you hsve aluminum foil, that works really well!
I still layed tape and paper on the floor, but then layed down foil on top of that before applying matting and resin! My molds would always release easily without losing form and durability!
-
As long as you also have matting in with the resin, it is strong enough to just pull the tape off. If not, then add matting, an pull the tape off. If that doesnt work, you can sand down and smoothe the backside to remove the tape!
-
Just be careful when applying! If the lights are already tinted and cleared, sand them with 800 grit wet sandpaper (wet sand), then apply your mid coat very catefully, mid coats such as pearls and candies are prone for runs, so apply carefully!
Then wait about 15-20 min and apply your clear, this should also help give you more depth in the lights and really bring out the color!
-
Staging, tuning, and well funding!
-
Regardless of how dark they are, you will see the pearl! Think....when you spray black base with a pearl mid coat, you will see the color change in the sunlight!
-
Beautiful build, very well executed! Do you have build pics?
-
R.I.P. Mr. Carroll Shelby! Your legacy and memories will never be forgotten! You will always be my icon and inspiration. R.I.P. good sir!!

3m makes a great compound, machine and hand glaze. Or you can go a more expensice route, but also very good and use Wizards!

2002-2003 they stopped making them in 2003!

Pretty conservative actually
600rms @ 4ohms
1000 rms @ 2 ohms
1500 rms @ 1 ohm
But those ratings are a 14.4v amp is capable of 16v continuous which I am unsure of ratings at 16v!
-
No just the one, but I may pick up the Sledgehammer soon, which is 2 of these amps in one casing!
