I would like all the criticism be it good or bad that I can get to better my future projects. Hope you like the pink cammo (almost as good as gp2k2's flower material. Thanks for lookin. Oh and sorry couldn't get the pics loaded up right.

kbreudi Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 yes, its bondo glass and I did 4 layers, its hard as a brick and has lots of curves for strength, but yeah its not sanded, havent gotten that far, but I will post more pics when I get there. Looks real good man, specaily for your first try. But one thing, its gonna be a bitch to sand down that bondo glass filler. I would suggest using regular filler unless you got the tools to get that glass filler crap smooth.

Coolwazabi Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 your really good actually.. making a box is pretty advanced for a first timer.. PROPS !!! +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philip Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 started off good. gonna be kinda hard to get it all nice. use a grinder, it will save you a lot of time. and when you make your next box try to make it so that you can add the glass to the back instead of on top and it saves you a lot of time and headache.

bigjoe302boss Posted November 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 I got a lil further on the box, ain't been pushing the build too hard because he isn't in a hurry and why rush it when you don't have to. You only mess up that way, thats what my experiences have taught me. dc lvl 4xl 12 kicker zx1500 2 sets of kicker ds6.5s optima yellow top (extra batt) with big 3 1/0 guage and 3 150amp anls eclipse cd5000 headunit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
