Very nice work. I've been getting some work done with fiberglass and gaining tons of experience along the way. I hope to be able to do work that larg some day soon. Congratulations again on a very nice install.

Wow, that is an awesome install! It's pretty much exactly what I want to do(minus the nitrous bottle since I don't have nitrous haha). I have 2 12's, 2 amps, and want to put a monitor on the trunk lid. Once again, awesome install, great work! Seeing it makes me want to go out to my garage and start on mine. haha

Bodywork is done on the deck lid. I shot primer today. I had to make glass a trim ring for the 7017 because nothing is made for the G. Heres a pic of my gauge pod Ive also been working on.
