Install Pics and fender Repair pics

I built the sub box of mdf and carbon fiber the top is molded fiberglass. I used my scrap pieces of carbon fiber to comprise the lower section of the enclosure that is in the wheel well. the carbon was much lighter and stronger than the old fiberglass box that housed 3 jl 10 w3's. This time I am using a single 15w3. total weight added in the trunk is approx 75 lbs.

I dropped the car off today at the body shop. I pulled the hood, lights, mirrors, etc.

The car, interior pieces, and sub box will be ppg silver frost/ fine blue pearl when I pick it up next weekend. The purple pearl that is on the car now only showed up under flourescent lights and didn't give the effect i was looking for. i will post more pics once the audio install is finished and the box is installed after being painted

Thanks, I appreciate the compliment. I worked so hard to get the car where it is today. I do my own work with the exception of paint. Someday I hope to be able to do that myself as well. I will be at the bodyshop all day saturday wetsanding the car and getting it ready to be shot first thing monday morning. That gives them 4 days to wetsand, buff, and reassemble her for next weekend wink

I am hoping my seat brackets get here so i can install These Puppies next weekend. Also have an in dash dvd player on the way and want to have it done for August 18th Hot Import Daze Mega Show in York PA

Hay dude I will be at Nopi in Sept I will look for you. Are you showing the cars. I have a mystique i would love to have some visors like that. They are great and the center console game controls is a great idea. I was going to mount a persion power eq in mine but ran out of money.
