reedal Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Grille cloth for the port cover...? It's pretty cheap from eBay. I assume that's what you mean by wrapping the frame, unless you want just the frame wrapped in something different...

bmwking Posted February 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Got the terminals wired up, had to hear just a quick demo and holy balls... it rocks. I was in the basement and the girlfriend texted me from upstairs saying glass was shaking and the dogs were super confused. That's a good sign to me. I definitely have some learning to do with the software and tuning of the amp, if anyone wants to drop some knowledge bombs im totally open to it... so heres some quick pics of the grille frame that i also got done. i rabbeted the inner edge of the port mouth and made the frame from some 3/8" trims i had. then rare-earth magnets to help it stay fixed. I was going to do all my rounding of edges tonight but the girlfriend isnt feeling good and I'd rather not incur her wrath because im making tons of router noise so maybe tomorrow... and showing off the magnets (sorry for blurry potato quality, apparently i was too close) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3vil Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 If you want a more "vintage" look those would do. I would just get black/grey/tan/wtf ever color fit with the rest of the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmwking Posted February 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Yeah I kinda want something neat looking, for my own personal touch since I'm not allowed to decorate anything else lol. I went with the diamond pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a grille cloth would be best.
