A while ago I posted some pics of my door panel build up, and it sounded OK. But last
week my friend who owns a camry made kick panels for his car. And I was really pissed
when I found out that his (well actually my Alpine Type-S speakers that I let him borrow)
sound way better then my $500 MbQuart Premiums frown.gif. So for the last 4 days I was making
kick panels. Yesterday I finished the driver side and it sounds just amazing! Today I am gonna finish
up the passager and maybe have enought time to carpet the damn things.
PS: Some people this that its easy and cheap to build kick panels, well they are wrong,
it took me about 50 hours and I am still not done. And I already spent $100 on the
fiberglass, resin and gloves alone. But hey, it sounds way better then it did before wink.gif...

Thanks
I got 1st place in SQ at SlapShow last sunday smile.gif
I got 187points, the 2nd place car had 160points. So I pretty much murdered him wink.gif. Hehe, the judge loved my car. He said that I have amazing mids, mid-bass and bass. Really wide stage (haha I love celica's for that) and the L/R/Center images are dead on point (pretty good, cuz I dont have any special timealighment done to it) Just stock timealighment that came with the deck wink.gif.
Judge told me that my car is perfect and that there are a couple of things I should do.
1) Finish the tweeter mount
2) Create better support for kick's
3) Extend Power wire in the engine bay
4) And do some more tuning to make it sound better, but that cant be made with my 7band Parametric, so I need to start saving up and get Rockford Fosgate 3sixty.2 and tune that wink.gif.
PS: I am planing on redoing the whole trunk, just to make it look a lil bit nicer and hide all the wires. Well I guess by next summer I'll be compeating in IASCA and prolly be in some magazine wink.gif
