Guest NeverEnuffBass Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 Started making molds of the panel and got all my rings cut and routed. Its raining like hell here so I can't do much more today. I was out of trupan so I had to use the cheapie mdf. It cuts, sands, and routs sooo much worse. Makes more dust too. Anyway here are some progress pics. I should have them wrapped and resined and possibly sanded by tom night. I think I'm going to paint them black. Molds are 4 layers of chop mat

Guest NeverEnuffBass Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 Cool, I like the position and placement... I just threw them on there for the pic. It stopped raining so I can put the panels back on my doors and position them properly
wL<3bass Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 Is that a 6.5" and a 5.25" at the top? Just curious why didn't you go with any 8" and 4" at the top? edit: nevermind I'm an idiot....didn't read the entire title just went scrolling for picks....see you using a 7" and 5.25" Vehicle: 1997 S10 Blazer 4dr 4X4 Exterior: Rear End Bagged, Black Grill, Lifted 2" Amplifiers: Rockford Fosgate T8004 & T10001bd Batteries: 2 Stinger SPV35, Kinetik HC2400 Electrical: Big 3, DC Power 290amp Alternator w/ MLA at 15.5v Enclosure: 4.2 ft³ @ 33Hz 84sq.in. of port (20sq.in. per cube) Headunit: Eclipse CD3200 w/ 80G iPod Mids/Highs: Rockford T152s (a-pillars), Rockford T162s (doors) Subwoofers: 1 15" Fi BL Fully Loaded Wire: All 1/0g Kicker Hyperflex My YouTube Videos My Fiberglass A-Pillar Build My "Seamless" Looking Box Build My DD1508 T-Line Bandpass Build "Seamless" w/ Acrylic Windows (for '05 TrailBlazer) My Stealth 8" Fiberglass Build (for '05 TrailBlazer) My Build For A Friend's '08 Cobalt 15" BL Sealed Off From The Trunk My feedback/references...

Considered a 7" yet its more like a 6.5 that has a big basket. I considered using an 8 but I had these Daytons laying around from a previous install that I never used them in
Guest NeverEnuffBass Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 I don't know if i'm going to be painting these... I thought about it and my leg is goign to be pretty close to them I really don't want them to get scratched. If I was to carpet them, Do you guys think I should do them in black or a gray? I don't know how close I can get to matching the factory panel.

Guest NeverEnuffBass Posted October 27, 2008 Report Posted October 27, 2008 So today I sanded down the passenger side and hit it with soem Rage Gold. I also finally wrapped and resined the driver side.... I guess the driver side underdash sits a bit closer to the door. Its def. going to fit but it does touch so painting is out of the picture or it will rub off on the dash. I'm going to try and pick some suede tomorrow.
Guest NeverEnuffBass Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 So today was pretty much a wasted day. Its been pouring rain here again all day so I can't really do any work on the pods. I did go to a few local fabric stores looking for suede but had no luck. One place had faux suede but it was paper thin and looked real cheap. I found a couple more upholstery places that may have it that I will go to tomorrow. The reason why I don't want to order the suede online is because I want to have these installed by the weekend and I don't want to pay to have over night shipping.
