up close..hehe

the white marks are where i scratched it putting it in the trunk....hopefully, over labor day, it'll come back out, get slicked up and repainted...

also...this thing pounds! considering i still have the factory head unit, which cancels the bass as u turn it up, this combo hits hard. the sub plys low and is extremely responsive! the amp gets a little warm, but i can live with that.

all in all, i am happy with my first venture into fiberglass. round two soon..hehe..i still have to put something in my truck!!

enjoy and let me know what u think! any suggestions will be appreciated!
