This is an Eagle Talon. Floated and amp rack fiberglassed it all in with one sub and a no2 bottle.

Let me know what you think.

looks nice, interesting fg around the smaller amp, makes a nice touch. I personally prefer a more symmetrical look in re gards to the botle and sub, but you had limited space and the customer wanted a NO2 sooo... still looks sharp and clean

ps how does it sound?

I sounds great. I used panasonic dvd series 5.25 components up front and panasonic 6x9's in the rear. It has a great sound to it. It's a little hard to tell but the bottle is really close the amp rack so it would have been pretty hard to change that much. but your right. About half way through I thought I should have raised the sub out more and angled it slightly, but I didn't want to waste the glass to go back and change it. But the guy I did it for love it. and it really looks better in person.

oh yeah and the glass work around the small amps was an attempt to make them look like they belong together. It's pretty hard to do with different model amps but I think I achieved it as good as it could be done working with the amps he had.

looks great man. that must have taken you a long time to get perfect huh? I hate sanding long, curved surfaces. I still need to put pictures up of my door panels...the driver's side is slowly coming to a close and looking great...It just sucks though working until 5, going home and taking care of kids, then going to sleep at 8 so that I can wake up a 430 and do it all over again.
