4-27 update: Something Evo this way comes....
-
the "Fish Foam" seals and reinforces the box while allowing a sandable, shapable surface to build from. It isn't the "Great Stuff" expanding foam in a can, this is application specific foam that has to be measured and mixed to work properly. Did I NEED to use it on this box? Nope, I could have just glassed everything and called it good, but that would be boring and more complicated.

Little more done tonight:
Built the amp rack & wire trough; did a quick milkshake guidecoat; wrapped enclosure in felt; applied resin; cut out openings....
Tomorrow night:
Duraglass, Rage Gold, Milkshake, Sand, Sand, Sand, Sand
Whenever amp & sub arrive: Make final trim panels, cover enclosure, kick Stephens ass for letting him let me talk him into this.

Looks like it's coming along well and no I'm not jealous at the amount of sanding you have left
-

06 EVO IX with sun sound and leather package.(RIP)
color: electric blue
mods: WORKS drop in filter and mud flaps :rolleyes:
1/4 mile was 13.3 with a 1.8 60' at 104(all stock) -
it won't weigh all that much, trust me, stephen wouldn't let me do it if it was gonna weigh a ton. Right now I can EASILY lift it with one hand, the sub will add like 21 lbs, and the amp another few, but other than that it won't be too bad. I'll have to put it on the scale when I'm done to know for sure.

got a LOT done tonight...I hate sanding, I REALLY REALLY REALLY hate sanding. I love my new DA Sander though, things pimp....anyways I'll skip boring you with pics of me sanding and refilling and sanding and refilling and sanding and refilling...instead I'll just show you the semi-finished product. Still have some beauty rings and trim panels to make. I also need to find someone who can CNC my logo out of some aluminum (hint hint SLS) to attach to the face of the box.
