    the only problem with that is , you have only created more your for yourself when you do decide to paint it properly. But yeah , from the pics it looks sharp. :) enough can never be said about body work prep before paint. It sucks, its work, it slow going, and its a dirty ass job. The more work you put into prep though, the better the end result will be, even if it is painted outside of a booth. When you go at it again ( assuming you wanna do it right ) you will pretty much have to sand all of that down , getting all the trash out of it from the ambient air, and whatever body work that was left unfinished will also have to be done. And assuming you didn't wipe it down good with a grease and wax remover, and a tack cloth, you most likely got orange peel and will most likely have adhesion problems after it cures good.

    I am not trying to knock your work by any means man. I applaud the effort, and no body learns better than by trial and error. so please take what I say as constructive and not derogatory in meaning. I just don't want you think you can't do it after you start encountering problems ( if you do, maybe not ) with this paint job. I think you got a awesome truck, I love the shaved out extended cab , so your foundation is really good. Another thing to, drop a little coin on some sheet plastic and seal up that carport from the outside when you paint and get a couple of cheap box fans to pull the air and overspray out of your homemade "booth" and you will see much better results.

    i will be haveing a real painter paint it when it is done

    still have to shave the marker lights, taillights , mabey suicide the doors and have a couple thingss in mind so it will be all screwed up before it is done

    i didnt like the low end when i had a smaller box (7 cf a piece) and was tunned to 35hz

    now mine are in a sixth order and i love it plays all the way down to 20hz or so and up to 80hz

    i was running a orion 2500 on each and switched over to a mm4000 autotek on each and definatly makes a differance

    i have had a 4000 on each coil the x's dont like it very long on music
