I'll see what the finish is like after the filler has been sanded. Wouldnt mind spraying it. Different to the material finish DEFINATELY :!
Depends how much time and money I've got left. Needs to be done for Modified nationals.

Bloody hell, youve got your work cut out for you there mate. You gonna trim it or spray it? If you go to all that trouble with fibreglass, you may aswell spray it, yank stylee!

If you look closely at the sub pic, you'll see a piece of mdf covering the access to the bulbs. That piece has a hole cut in it and the piece of mdf that was cut out will be stuck back in and sealed and will have a small handle on it. To change a bulb, I'll take out the sub, cut round the sealant on the cut out mdf and pull it out with the handle. Then when I replace it, I'll seal round it again :cool: :cool:
Ingenious or what :lol:

Re trim at some point. was going for leather/alcantara, but I've seen too many leather interiors in all sorts of cars, so I'm gonna go for something different with an impact. Dont know what or when, but I'm increasing steadily on the amount of cobra red material so it'll include that and something else(be cheaper than a full leather re trim too)

All credit to RAM at Wakefield for this stage.
I aint got the tools to cut the MDF so They're doing that bit for me.
I'll be taking over to do the fibre glassing and smoothing.

Full frontal !!! Both subs will be housed to the right.
The middle will contain three Rockford amps with a perspex cover and neons.
The right will house the components


Close up of sub enclosure


View from right for components

Should get car back middle of the week to start with the fibre glassing.
Will keep ya all updated.
Old install still for sale £180!!!! ;)
