Nightshade Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I like the build so far. It reminds me of the wall I had in high school, however I'm sure its probably louder than mine back then.

Slinky Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 OP: that thing is looking great man, all black i like it, nice and simple yet sharp looking, playing yet? haha Thanks! It's playing and it sounds damn good. I'm very impressed. For only 2600 rms I couldn't be happier. i saw exo use just some walmart paint. its like a certain brand thats really shinny and it looks great. also house hold paint works great i use it on all my boxes. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Rust-Oleum-Stops-Rust-1-qt-Gloss-Black/17011202 im pretty sure thats the stuff. his shit looks pretty much perfect I used that EXACT same stuff and rolled it on my box, mixed it with some other paint though, only used a pint of it to darken the other paint, turned out good though So I'm looking for something that will give me a more textured look. I would love to do some bedliner type stuff but I don't think that is feasible at this time.

This means there are spots where I really needed to add more body filler and do more sanding, but I simply ran out of time. I wanted to get this thing playing for the 2 shows this weekend and won't be able to work on it at all this week so it was crunch time for sure. I like the build so far. It reminds me of the wall I had in high school, however I'm sure its probably louder than mine back then. Keep up the good work. Thanks man. It's an ongoing project as is everyone's systems. I will be taking it to two car audio shows next weekend in STL and I'm pretty pumped for that. I hope to have some more pics and vids soon. I gotta find someone to take vids where I'm not gonna piss everyone off.

Slinky Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 congrats. what kinda numbersThanks man! So, I hit a 149.2. Keep in mind that this is only 1 batt under the hood, a factory deck, and only 2600 rms. I think it's pretty good. This is also my first run ever and I had no idea what I was doing. The next purchase week be another batt as well as a bigger sub amp.
