well I started my first project. I made alot of mistakes but I am sure sanding and a bit of fibreglass bondo will even it all out for the secound layers. I included a custom box I am starting which made this alot of fibreglass to deal with. I am getting better though.

i have a question for you... why did you use FG for a flat peice? its not onyl a waste of time and effort but not as strong as a MDF.

Just me but I notice that youare mixing alot of different brands...any particuliar reason? you have two RF amps 3 Pioneer amps, two alpine subs and two pioneer subs, two kaption 6x9s and two alpine 6x9s. I know that monetary changes effect it and all, but is there any other reason? I would have to second that it is a bit overkill, but looks like it will be fun. What type of wires/distribution blocks are you running? also one last question, are you bridging your batteries? I noticed that you have a separate one in the back but is that all you have powering your system? Is one of those amps dedicated to your front stage?

got a good deal on the amps and equiptment. Batteries run off a 200 amp stinger relay. 140 amp alternator. 150 amp fuse. 3 1.0 farad capacitors. maybe adding a 25 farad also. 1 gage wire. 2 pioneer amps dedicated to 6x9s 1 pioneer amp dedicated to 350 watt subs and tweeters up front 2 RF 1000's to free air subs 10 and 12 inch

it will look a heck of alot better than this also

the other amp isnt shown.

this was the old backseat Yuck. this box will get rid of it all and look good. =] 6X9's are going to be embedded in the box I making.

and this was a temp setup before the freeair design. A ratsnest yes but it was temp.
