Swaggasaur Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 This project i started about 6 months ago and finally finished it and installed it before Slamfest. Here are some pictures along the way, i changed the location of the plexi glass twice before i was happy with the results and had done a shit load of sanding. if i was to do it again, i would wrap the vinyl better because most of the imperfections came from the wrap, but it was my first time doing a big fiberglass piece like this and my first wrap. Started with a frame I used ponte which is like a material used in like under armour shirts i guess. i also used staples to attach it to the wood frame, but i would suggest hot glue or something that can dry very fast. I forgot to take pictures throughout the fiberglass stage, but i had to lay down a whole bunch of plastic to protect the interior from the fiberglass as it drips off. once i was able to take the frame down it took about 3 layers of fiberglass mat to get it nice and solid. finished product BHE Wall Build TEAM DC Audio TEAM XS POWER1986 Monte Carlo KMC Nova's 20"4 DC XL's W/ PSI Recones2 DC 5k'sPioneer PRS 8010 Audio Technix 6 XS Power D3100's 1 XS Power D3400 Mechman 220a Alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamHT Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 It does look incredibly awesome, maybe next time sand more? LOL. I remember thinking once upon a time this was enough then once wrapped every flaw became magnified. This is awesome though! Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

Swaggasaur Posted October 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 thanks guys. appreciate it. It does look incredibly awesome, maybe next time sand more? LOL. I remember thinking once upon a time this was enough then once wrapped every flaw became magnified. This is awesome though! haha yea. never ending sanding. most of the imperfections came from too much glue in some places also. it globbed up, cuz im a noob with wrapping. i used weldwoods contact cement, but when i layed it down with a brush i put too much in some places. you really dont need a lot at all. i also got a lot of information from Car Audio Fabrications Youtube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/CarAudioFabrication/featured BHE Wall Build TEAM DC Audio TEAM XS POWER1986 Monte Carlo KMC Nova's 20"4 DC XL's W/ PSI Recones2 DC 5k'sPioneer PRS 8010 Audio Technix 6 XS Power D3100's 1 XS Power D3400 Mechman 220a Alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
