I was bored last week so I made some kickpanels for my Saturn. I should have vacuumed my car out but on my 6 & 7 day work schedule I haven't had time to. I'm using my Diamond Audio tweeters and 2 6 1/2" American Pro midbasses. My amp is set at 50 HZ on highpass. This is my 1st fiberglass project but I think it turned out alright.

Lookin' pretty good. Smooth them out, cover 'em and take more pics.

You really should have trimmed the sides to get rid of that stray fiberglass and spent more time on the details like smoothing it out, blending them with the interior, ect. Plese take no offense to this because if it sounds good to you then thats really all that matters. This is just my opinion. [Smile]

BTW, props on working with glass though, im not confident enough to glass some kicks for myself.

I'll trim the edges but I'm going to wait until after db drag racing finals. Yeah I should have gotten a darker gray. I used Engine spray paint.

I am not trying to rag on you but... those are the worst looking freakin kicks that I have ever seen. There are several step by step guides about how to make these things and I would seriously suggest that you take a look at one. I know that the goal is great sound but these things look like s&*%.
