September 20, 201014 yr Looking great! Maybe I may get to hear this monster the next time I get down your way.
September 20, 201014 yr Author Holy crap man, those pods look great! Love the idea of the Aperiodic membrane install!Keep up the great work!Thanks man. Aperiodic enclosure "sounds" like a good idea, but I dun know. lol
September 20, 201014 yr Author Looking great! Maybe I may get to hear this monster the next time I get down your way.Yeah buddy!
September 23, 201014 yr And I thought the last install was nuts. The pods look good. As far as vinyl wrapping, just remenber that a good hair drier or a low powered heat gun is your friend.

September 23, 201014 yr Author Thanks guys!I bought a heat gun at harbor freight on the cheap so I got that coveredAs far as glue I bought some 3M in a spray can, but I am not sure that is what I need.What do you guys use for glue? I don't have an air compressor or spray gun, so it would have to be can or brush on.

I don't have an air compressor or spray gun, so it would have to be can or brush on. The 77m was too weak. I ended up using the 3m 'Super Trim adhesive' Make sure its the "SUPER" cause they make other strengths in the same looking can.

I ended up using the 3m 'Super Trim adhesive' Make sure its the "SUPER" cause they make other strengths in the same looking can.I agree that the 77m is not the route to go. The 3M 80/90 is better, but only marginally. It will let go at some point (been there, done that). I use some stuff a friend of mine has that comes in a 5 gallon bucket, is a funky orange color and will make you higher than a kite ( ) while working in his 40x60 shop. He buys it at a local fabric/interior design/auto covering supplier. Of course, I just "borrow" some of his. I always use his sprayer, but I think if you could buy it in smaller quanties you could brush it on. Heck a local supplier might be able to make you up some small quanity spray cans of some really good adhesive. I know a couple of local auto body supply shops do it with paint. Couldn't hurt to check.
September 23, 201014 yr Author That is the exact stuff I bought. Cool deal.Can I get high on this one too? lol
September 23, 201014 yr That is the exact stuff I bought. Cool deal.Can I get high on this one too? lolAs 6appeal stated that even this glue can and will release over time. I used hot glue on the back of the pod around the edges to help combat this. secondly the vinyl must have tension from all directions not to bubble. The 80/90 is kinda like contact cement in a can, SO I am sure you could probably catch a buzzzzzz.
September 25, 201014 yr Author Here we go with the rear doors.Going to wrap these today hopefully. I was planing to try and install tomorrow, but my speaker wire didnt show. Damn you USPS.On with the pics:The podsWith driversLoadedOn the doorAnd for tonightGo Gamecocks, Fight, Win, Kick Ass!

I really appreciate the kind words.Beautiful craftmenship Lance!!!!!!Definetly can't wait to see how the vinyl turns out.Thanks Bro, should be interesting that's for sure.

September 25, 201014 yr I honestly vote skipping the vinyl and just go for the paint. I say this from personal experience. Good luck which ever way you go.
September 25, 201014 yr Author I honestly vote skipping the vinyl and just go for the paint. I say this from personal experience. Good luck which ever way you go.See now, this ^ is not helping. I am going to try the vinyl because I have not done it before. I am hard headed like that. If it turns into an epic fail, well paint it is. lol
September 25, 201014 yr I have no doubt that you can do the vinyl. You will definetly learn the tricks real quick once you give it a try.
September 25, 201014 yr Author Another little update for you bassheads. Got my box design from the master last night. Thank you Dylan, you are the MAN!~How about that shit? Hope to start on this next week!
September 25, 201014 yr Box is awesome, love the design. You already know how I feel about the drivers and the pods are nice man. I would paint them as well, they look way to fresh to cover with vinyl bro but its your decision. You wanna do mine next?
September 25, 201014 yr Nice design!! Not the norm which makes it!! Damn that Yukon is goin to be LOUD!!
