PaulD i need help

hi, pauld i remeber you saying that you have fiberglassed 8" subs in your door to save room in your trunk and i am thinking of doing something like that with the midbass drivers and i want to know if you could give me some idea on how to do this.

Heres a tutorial my friend did on another site im on, this is for sub enclosures but you can use the same concept for a door panel.

NICE link. Have you done this before, and is it really that easy ?

i think i might try that. with the kick pods. will fiberglass stick to plastic?

Usually you have to rivet it to make sure it wont come off, thats what bondo is for.

Personally ive done it once and it took forever, it was for a CRX with one 12" he wanted it to look like it was part of the trunk. He got tired of sanding and just covered it with carpet. Im going to start on my door panels very shortly, i just got a nice size piece of "leather" for $6 on ebay its like 10 sq ft. I learned some interior work back in high school, and i can do body work with fiberglass so im going to take my knowledge there and combine them to see what can do.

Fiberglass takes awhile to do but the results are awesome. Just take your time, make sure everything is done right, be as accurate as possible and plan it all out. It takes alot of trial and error to get good at it.

I had someone do it, since I didn't have the time back then. That's a good link

do i dare say how much it cost?

Just look at the material cost for my friends sub box, not as much but alot of the stuff can be found at walmart. As for custom stuff they charge by the hour unless you get an agreed upon price, but its not cheap.

if you have to ask, you don't wanna know. I knew it's what I wanted, so it was worth it - it's been in my car for more than 3 years now. The Accord obviously doesn't have the low end like 12's or 15's, but the 8's match with mid/tweets well with most types of music at reasonable levels

well i would like to know because if all else failsthen i could take it some where.

looking at least $500 per door, mine was a little more. It was at the shop or a week
