Gerry, I have never dealt with fiberglass at all. I am sure there is someone on here who can help you, and prolly be local. I would like to try it, but I don't think you want your RED DRAGON to be the guinea pig. I know I can do the rear speaker and the ones for the doors.

I read about the guy's write up on diymobile that the subs sounded better than when they were in the trunk, that is the reason he did that rear seat subwoofer enclosure. I bet it will be loud if you are going for SPL... I would prefer having an SQL system... nice good quality sound system... not the loudest...

lol.. you are right, somone local probably will be best, if not I will look into it , doing it myself . It doesn't seem to be hard... just another learning process I guess.

lol, I thought of facing them 45 degrees to the front instead of upwards to the rooftop.. that will give me a good massage at the back ..lol.

Those are huge 345... I would love those ...but I am serious Omar, get that 1400rwhp FD and I will trade you my other 6 speed MKIV... not the 6 speed stroker though. . I am thinking of selling the former anyway once my red dragon is fully working.

Warmer weather will soon come in and get my daily beater SC400 painted either white or black. I will do the sanding myself so I won't be charged much for a whole car paint job. Normally , they charge me $500 as long as I bring the car ready for spraying. I have decided to shave the badges, logo and the trunk spoiler. Will give this car till this year to konk out. Either way , by the end of the year another 2jz going into this car.

now you got me thinking again .

You are the third person to tell me to keep that Platinum Metallic. I can , it so happened that one of my supra and my benz are almost of same color being silver that's why I thought of changing color. I even thought of going anthracite (1A1) on this SC since I missed my anthracite mkiv.

Well, I have at least a month to think. I will look at hundreds of online pictures before I decide . It will be sometime March or April I will get this thing painted after all ...... my head is beginning to hurt now , lmaol.

lmao... This is such a great color.. so classy! it would be one thing if the car was originally green or red or every other color you see... But not Platinum.. Too Classy of a color to change..

Platinum Metallic makes a true "Supra in a fat suit" or "Supra in a very nice Tuxedo" haha

Youll make a good decision either way... I mean, look at your fleet of vehicles haha

Thats a tough choice. I REALLY like the Anthracite (1A1) color, but the Platinum Metallic is a rare color. Either color will look great though.
