Wrapped one side of the cars rub strips. Hopefully do the other side tomorrow and lacquer them so they last longer.

Not sure if should do the door handles and mirror trim if I got enough left.

So things started off ok at the weekend got the manky green bonnet prepped and into primer. You may think I'm made using oxide red primer. But I did some test pieces and it helps the paint stand out better.

Then this happend! [Image: null_zps33a02730.jpg]

I dropped my paint! Sad Sad Sad

So now I gotta start all over again!

But the pink looks pretty!

I've given up with paint at the moment as it's to wet. so I made my list etc of what needs doing. The biggest thing is the audio and car electrics need sorting so I'm doing that as my first job!

So today I turned my boot from this

[Image: null_zps31ab6255.jpg]

To this
[Image: null_zps34c4f282.jpg]

I'm missing a photo of to of the sub and part of the audio build back in the boot, but will take it when it's stopped raining. Next job to do is make an amp rack and another housing for my third sub and then its fibre glass time! lol

I also need to do some more sound deadening. I'm hoping to have the main structure finished next weekend as I haven't got any time to work on it tomorrow or in the week.

Also some of the boot trim needs to be modified/ repaired as it cracked while removing it from the car and I'm going to get the parts dipped!

I'm thinking

Hello kitty

This is how I left my boot build last week
[Image: null_zpsb875f7fa.jpg]

Started working on middle enclose for third sub

[Image: null_zps494d26da.jpg]

And this is what it looks like now
[Image: null_zps13ebc9bc.jpg]

Still need a lot of work but it's a start, figuring out where to place the amps next. Then where to route all the wiring etc.

Also I decided to liven up my strut braces. As I didn't have any paint I covered them in pink gaffa tape! Big Grin

Well I've made abit of progress on the boot build today. Mainly a lot of measuring and cutting so there's not much to see picture but there's one of where the amps will be.

[Image: null_zpsf41082b3.jpg]

There will be another amp on the left. But you get the picture. I will have more of it constructed at the weekend hopefully then it's into building the door cards! And testing everything!

So been doing more work on boot build today and made the boxes to house my amps.

[Image: 4D55EFE9-9724-4A8B-8AD9-ED7D33F77788_zpswuvsxy6r.jpg]

They're rough at the moment but will be tidied up eventually. I was hoping to place them roughly where the amp is in the previous post but there's no room for them and it looks crap........ So there going up high lol!

[Image: 0B3A1746-006A-4B58-B32A-720C943DA835_zpsnhktgg73.jpg]

I might even be building and extra bit for some speakers but not sure yet. Got to decide what happening. But it's getting there!
