Just a quick update so i don't have to do a boat load in one go :grin:

My brother bought a couple of subs in boxes and got a power cap chucked in for nowt.
I decided to commandeer this and then proceeded to strip it to pieces. :evil:
It was a garish silver spangly crap colour that looked naff.

So i decided to chop up some cans of Relentless (as so far this build seems relentless :evil: )and fit them to the body of the cap.Then sprayed both ends black instead of silver.
This is the finished result.

I know they dont do much,but it is purely for looks.

Cheers lads :evil:

TBH i havnt got a clue where im gunna put it yet :grin:
The whole back end of the interior is stripped ready for paint so when i build it back up i will have a squiz and decide.

As for the GTO amp,hell no,it's a keeper lol i specifically got this one as ive had one before running a 12"JL Audio sub and some Rainbow components and it was unbreakable!
Although im undecided whether to strip the case off and give it to Daz to spray body colour when the car goes for a respray. :nerd:

Cheers Stow! :cool:

Right as it is a nice day ive finally got the weather on my side to change the sunroof over for a non shagged one.
I didnt want to do it just yet but hey ho.

So out came all the abc plastics,seatbelts and headlining.








Job done!

Also as its going next week i decided i would whack the rear bumper on temporary so i dont have to transport it in the car when it goes for paint.

Plus ive been dying to see what it looks like after hours of work on the bloody thing!

Nice progress!... You're on a right little mission... putting it all back together sucks though.
