heres what all of my time has gone into lately: i fiberglassed my friend a set of door panels for his hertz speakers for a 97 subaru legacy... these are the lower parts that i've been working on:

hopefully i can convince him to start a build log sometime... we will be putting 2 skar vvx-8's on 1000 watts in his car, along with 2 mbquartz prototype class a/b amps.

Thanks guys, i really do appreciate it.

sorry (again) that i haven't been in here for a while. i wish i had the dedication some of you guys have on here. i just don't get the motivation to sit down and do this lol

well, i have baaaaad news. today i will be tearing out the stereo. :(

the fiberglass pan is not to be finished. i don't have the time to finish it. ill post up progress of it soon.

i hate to let you guys and myself down, but its gotta come to an end.

i recorded some video of my system's last moments playing, and hey, i actually talked in it this time! still warming up to the video deal.

my car will be for sale on craigslist in the next couple days, and i want to sell my woofers, the box, and the 2 xp950s sometime soon (i'm leaving to California in 2 weeks)

i'd like to keep my amps, but if the right deal comes along, ill be all for it.

the head unit, and the pioneer components will stay in the car.

one question for you guys: should i keep the big 3 in the vehicle? the s975 will stay in the car...
