Welcome to the IHoP

Just got back from seeing "Hitchikers guide to the galaxy"

I give it a 7 out of 10, worth a rental but not worth going to see it.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

that sucks... it was a pretty good book.

Movies made from books are never as good as Your own imagination I spose...

UPDATE:

WEll I started glassing the doorpods today. My first venture into fiberglass and let me tell you, for someone who is a neat freak like me, it is hard to to it cleanly. However, once you get the hang of it, you really get into the grooove and get your own system going. I will post pics soon.

I got my shipping notification from Ikesound.com today, and my P9 setup wont be here until the 31st . Hopefully I get everything else together before that though.

I'm still looking for a good deal on some RCA interconnects if anyone can hook me up.

Anyways, looks like it was a pretty unevenful day around here.....

Oh, I also got my Iraggi alternator today. I'm going to have it tested at Autozone, hopefully it is too much for their ampmeter.

Not stock. You'll see. They will look pretty nice when I'm done. I am utilizing the factory speaker mount, but I will be doing a custom baffle and modling it into the existing doorpanel. It should be a nice suttle look. Once I post pictures it will make a whole lot more sense.

ahh ok. fiberglassing is really fun stuff, minus the smell. it's amazing all the stuff u can do with it. just seems intimidating b4 u try it. however, finishing = the biatch if youre not doing simple carpet.

[EFFENDI 0]

It wont be a big issue. I've done a lot of painting/finishing work, so I am more than familiar with the techniques... I wont be painting unfortunately, probably just covering that baffle with vinyl.

Before I started this project I stopped by a few local shops to find out what the work might cost if I had someone else do it. Well, average quoted price was $200.00 but without any custom fiberglass work or molding.

Anyway, I bought $60 worth of supplies today, and I was expecting to spend at least $100. Sure beats paying someone else to do it!

for being underbudget!
