First Box Build

Recommended Posts

yeah its not by any means thick enough at all but it was free so i didnt want to argue lol but i tried to compensate by created the window theme and giving a 2in lip around the plexi to be glued down and sealed and to prevent vibration a little. im sure itll flex the plexi im just wondering how much im hoping its not enough to notice so we will see. i glued down the leds to the plexi too to sorta "weigh it down" which i know it wont but all the glue on the plexi glass itself will probably be enough to prevent alot of vibration...im hoping

inside view thru the plexiglass

i have a few finishing touches to make. im gonna carbon trim some of the side then put invisible packing tape all around the edges of the box so it protects the edges from scratches and keeps the vinyl from peeling off.

tell me what you guys think so far and any suggestions

if you use a good enough glue, you wont need tape. its ghettofied enough as it is.

im not taping up the box im taping the trims so the vinyl doesnt peel off on the edges where its most likely to get nicked and start to peel off. adding glue to a sticker wont do much... its not gonna be visible at all so its not going to affect the appearance of the box. i have a bit of this vinyl shit left so for the face im doing all the trims with carbon fiber so you wont see the individual peices of the box itll look like one piece in other words. and the only places i think is "ghetto" is the inside of the back of the box which no one can see at all so it doesnt bug me, the whole box is ricer tho but thats the theme
