NEW PICS...My fiberglass spring break project!!!

My wife wanted to put her stereo from her old Tiburon in her new Si, but I just couldn't let her use her old box. So I did what any sane man would do and spent my spring break building this bad boy!! This is my first time trying fiberglass, so I know it can be better, but I think it came out AWESOME!! I just finished dynamat in the trunk tonite. Here's the pics.....

The car it's going in


Assembly


Skeleton


Test fit


1st coat of resin


2nd coat(looking rough, I know, but it works out in the end)


Filler


1st coat of paint




Clear










amps mounted but not all cleaned up yet

I don't want them in my car. My wife wants them in her car. I am not a big fan of big booming stereos, but my wife loves them, so this is for her FG2. My FG2 will be getting lots of goodies, but nothing for the sereo!! hehehe

Wow, that looks great. I can't imagine having that much weight added to the ass of the car. As another member commented on a similar system, 'it feels like I have 3 dead bodies in the trunk.'

Did you get fiji blue paint, too? +1 rep :)
