There is no shortage of "builders" on audio forums that have no business charging others for their service.

Absolutely some will even post pictures of their work and people will still go to them because they're cheap or free. I've seen some things and then you find out that those people actually charge money and brag on their work. It's scary

That's no bullshit. Nothing like seeing someone post up their creation, and then see a dozen replies of how amazing they are. Facebook is flooded with these lately.

Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out.

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)

Don't forget all the business costs (insurance, overhead, wages, etc...) that a shop has the people who just do installs on the side don't have. It's not just that they charge more, they have more to pay for, including covering their ass should something go wrong with the install and burn your car down. It's the sole reason I won't touch someone else's vehicle unless I know that person REALLY well and even then I usually only do head units.

me too

dont ask i wont do it

Ill send them some place I can trust instead

Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, debt is the money of slaves. Just my .02c

that shop needs keep those doors open so they have to charge for it

if people think 10k is a lot then they should get into other hobbies.. like masturbating, cause any hobby cost money to maintain

Lol no, I'm smarter than that bro haha. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice..............go fuck yourself lol

There are a handful of guys out there that I'd love to have do a build for me but I couldn't afford any to have any of them do it so I just do my own stuff.

I'd probably assemble a team to do the build each guy doing what they are best at I know this much though audiofanticz Would Be building the wall.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

I do my own work just because I am particular in the way I want it to look or sound or for any other reason. I also just don't have an idea and start building. I like to plan things out as much as possible before I even pick up a saw or look for materials. I have done builds for friends but those were simple installs and box builds. I have had one or two ask me about door panels/pods and I refused because I know I am not skilled in that area....yet. Maybe after tons of practice on my own car I might try one for someone else but I doubt it. I like installing for friends because I hate seeing them getting bent over by some of the shops around here. I also tell them that if ANYTHING happens just let me know and I will fix it, if I cant then I will pay to have it fixed. Like I said this is only friends so nothing big and its just something I enjoy doing.

For doors, Bill and Leavitt are hard to beat. Berger does good work in my opinion too.

Berger does do some great work, Galen does too...

There's a few guys out of Texas that do good work too, Daniel Powell is one. Epicenter Designs does some crazy good doors outta Florida, and Robin has some stellar builds aswell.
