Robert8252 Posted July 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 It's my first time but my brother has a little previous experience. Just minor stuff and never nothing that took this much detailing to get right. I'm happy with the outcome. Not excited about doing the drivers side but it should go quicker atleast. Took about 20 hours total to get this one done. Aiming for 10 for the drivers haha. And the reason I took this project on is because they just look fucking awesome and I get jealous seeing others. Lol. Definately will consider wrapping future projects if it's an option. For anyone looking into fiberglass. Laying the resin and mat is nothing. Just take your time and get it ok nice and even. The sanding part is the "hardest" it's not hard labor or nothing but you really need to spend as much time as you can stand and then go a few more hours to get it right. 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert8252 Posted July 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Great news. It fits. Lol. My other set should be here tomorrow because they got delayed a week from shipping because of ebay's screw up. Oh well. Better late then never. So busy weekend ahead. Trying to get the drivers door done and also my new head unit installed. I love how it looks. Look back Sunday night for finished pics 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert8252 Posted July 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 Drivers door is finally underway. Had a moth join us. Scooped him out before we put the activator in it. Probably would have made a cool effect though After midnight and out of lacquer thinner for the brushes so calling it a night. And a question I want your opinions on. Grills or no grills? I like both and can't decide. I like seeing the speakers playing but also like the looks the grills have. 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert8252 Posted July 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 That white will disappear by next week. Its just been so much work on that one panel I wanted to get the drivers side done and worry about the small details next weekend. Nothing a small coat of paint won't fix. 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
