Local shop outrageous quote for custom fab?

Recommended Posts

I have about 700 lbs of mdf in the back of my suburban and it drops the rear end 1.5 - 2 inches, actually levels it out perfectly. I would suggest using a little stiffer springs in the rear to compensate the weight of 4 18s tho, and the body roll with a lift is gonna be pretty rediculous lol.

Sorry. SQ and subwoofer enclosure rarely are used in the same sentence around here. For our models of SUV's they make some simple kits for the rear of weight is an issue and since you have a lift you prolly already know something about this.

IDK what you plan on building but a couple subs in a box, a battery, an amp etc. isn't that much weight in the back of a full size SUV

Maybe just do some researching of sorts before you drop ANY money into more stereo so you get more of what you want the first time

4000.00 not bad from Shop to do pods. If you think about it the hours and labor to do 4 panels and get them the same. Lots of work for a shop not to make money on.

I won't say what I paid for my current doors but I got quoted 700 finished by someone for new ones if I'd like.

Nice. Was that a homie hook up?

Something like that. It was the first set of doors Galen did when he worked with Berger

if you don't like the price, don't pay. no need to trash a person/shop for their prices. try another shop or do it yourself. I get guys like you in the shop all the time for simple stuff telling me my prices are outrageous. it's roughly $100 to install a deck, is that an outrageous price? but i get jokers telling me how my job is so easy yet you can't do it. then for the few that blast me about the time I ask for, that go on to tell me how it can be done in a fraction of the time. if it's so fkn easy and cheap, why are you here? you're not paying for what you think. you're paying for that person's knowledge. there's a huge difference in a door panel that can fit 2 mids and 2 tweeters and a door panel built to fit the vehicle and speakers.

if nothing changes, nothing changes

You don't know what you don't know, till you don't know
