I have been following the install for a while over on the car sound forums.... Your fabrication skills make me crazy. My favorite part so far is the block of marble with sand paper from a floor sander to get a perfect flat surface. Just makes me smile. Your attention to detail are the types of things I strive for and other people should to. Thank you for taking thing to another level of taste and refinement. Still can't believe you plunge routered all that aluminum. I wish I had that kind of time.

I did have one question when you resign your carbon fiber do you press it and heat it when its drying to get a smooth finish or do you float it on and just wet sand it up and clear it ?

Can't wait to see more !

Oh one more thing any critics of this install need to lock it up. I can remember anyone doing this level of work around here.

No pressing of heating needed. I just give it time to dry and than wet sand it like a maniac.

And by the way: It's not made out of marble, just MDF (wood)....

I needed to adjust the backside of the poly part. Now it fits nicely and is just the way i wanted it to be.

Here you can see the crossovertray while opening.

Picture of the inside of the place where the crossovertray will be mounted in.

Next thing to do is shape the front of the tray so that is will fit for 100%.

It was pretty cold, but i found a way to keep me warm.
This is what my workshop lookes like after sanding on the tones of metallica's death magnetic.

As you can see, i've used a can of spraypaint to sand the curves.

Congratulations, your work is truly remarkable and is well worth the focal material!

For skeptics, four 13WS can give excellent results!

My old had four 5WS for my sub and yielded excellent results

WOW! keep it coming! :speechless::2thumbsup::biggrinflip:

Here's a picture of the finished part to fit on the front of the crossovertray.

On this picture you can see that it fits perfectly.

I've cut some glas to mount in the sidepanels.

Then i've sanded the carbon frames and prepared them to get painted.

The inner rail is mounted a bit lower than the rest. I'm going to fix everything with TEC7.

The carbon on the frontside is sanded and ready to get clearcoated.

The carbon part that will be mounted on the front of the tray is sanded and ready to be clearcoated.

In the meanwhile everything is removed from the car, so that it can get a final touch .
The carbon is already covered with epoxy.

I've been looking at the crossovertray, and it misses something...
In the front you can see the lights that i will be mounting.

Still pushing those boundaries rob! EXCELENT!
Good to see you using a guide coat for the chop down of the panel (good panel beaters trick).
Looking forward to your next upgrade.

BTW, can I recommend you cover the glass panels in some clear film. As you would be suprised how easy that 3mm glass breaks, specially with BASS. Just some advice...

 

[robolop]

I've made some changes to the sidepanels.
The straight part looked rathed ugly, so i've changed its shape.
Here you can see that i've made the changes so that everything fits perfectly.

Clearcoated.

 

[robolop]

This is what will be mounted inside of the crossovertray.
It will be covered with carbon.

Were still watching with intense Robolop! Great!

 

[robolop]

Some carbon parts are already clearcoated en ready to be installed .

These 2 alulinium plates will be used to guide the connectors from the crossover..
