id take pics, but i have no digital cam:S so ill keep it top secret till one day its revealed:P lol
i wanted to do that at the triple, but it aint gonna happen

 

so theres some tiny, crappy pics taken with my webcam, man that sucker was a behotch to get out..... cuts and scrapes all over my hands...... damn shiznit.... i got a lil more layers to ad to strengthen it a lil in weak spots, then im gonna make some pedistals for the amps to sit above the wheel wells, then stretch some fleece and more resin time.....

 

well it didnt much like the safeway plastic party cups i bought thinkin "hey this will be a good way to aviod makin a mess and i can toss em out after"......

WRONG lol like i said, least i learned that OUTSIDE the car


PS i ended up using a couple of glasses i found from the guy who lived here before us for both the resin and acetone..... lol works well enuff fer me lol
