lowcel Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn man, fucking huge congratz on all that shit, couldn't be happier than that for an outcome. You on cloud 9 or what?!?! Thank you. I'm pretty happy about it. I'm most happy that I am now qualified for both MECA SQ Street and Install finals. I don't think that's too bad for a clueless new guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowcel Posted May 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Well I had a pretty exciting weekend. It started off on Friday with ankle surgery. Then on Saturday I got bored and made a few stickers. Then on Sunday I got really bored of being on the couch so I headed to Columbus for a competition. I probably shouldn't have gone but I'm glad I did. I had a great day.

lowcel Posted May 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 This past weekend I went down to Knoxville, TN for a MECA show. I had a great time and had some pretty good results. Tied for SQL Best of Show, awarded to Charles Haley since he beat me in install and SQ. I only beat him in RTA. Considering he was last years bobos winner at finals I"m very happy with this result. He crushed me in bobos, he is doing 150 db and I'm doing 136's. That is a pretty big advantage. Street Install - 1st Street SQ - 1st and $20 RTA - 1st Street 1 SPL - 1st Park & Pound 1 - 1st SPL Phat Install SQ Phat Truck SQ Most Improved I've got to say, I'm loving these Audible Physics speakers. I had my 10 day follow up for my ankle yesterday. Once I finished with that I picked up some supplies for my next project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowcel Posted May 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Time for an update on my new pillars. I worked about two or three hours for three days on them and got them ready to cover. I ordered four way stretch vinyl to do the job. Unfortunately, I received zero stretch. I decided to try anyway. Unfortunately, it didn't work out. To make it worse I decided to try the other pillar with some two way stretch vinyl I already had. That didn't work either. This is how they looked after I pulled the vinyl back off. Kind of remind me of Freddy Kruger. It took some time with Acetone and a green scuff pad but the glue did come off. Unfortunately the vinyl had pulled some bondo off as well. After a couple of hours of cleaning I got back to work on them. This time I added primer to make it easier to get the glue off if I screw up again, or whenever it's time to build them again. Replacement vinyl should be delivered tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowcel Posted May 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 It took three attempts, but the pillars are finally covered, dyed, and installed. Audible Physics tweeters with quick connects. A few awards from my first show with the new pillars. Best of best of show. Best of show SQL. First place street install. Second place SQ Street. First place park and pound 1. Second place SPL Street 1. Overall It has been a pretty good first couple of months competing. I have been to seven competitions so far in states including OH, VA, KY, and TN. I've heard a lot of very nice sounding cars and met lots of good people. I'm having a great time playing around in this hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
