for supplys go to an auto body store. most parts stores have just cheap paint. good paint comes from Dupont PPG house of kolor along with a few others. and for doing door pods it all depends on the panel. if you havent got one already id suggest gettting a video set on how to do fiberglass work that will help out alot.

ok good idea on that one. I have fiberglassed and its turned out i just want to be good enough to make paintable projects. The speaker sits 3 inches behind the door panel, i want to bring it up on the front of it, could i make a series of mdf ring to span the gap to the new door pod? I think that would reduce most if not all of the instability, also making a fairly large carvity for the speaker to work in if allowed to play in the hollow of the door.

Rage is all the rave. Bondo just plain sucks.

Have you ever heard of the milkshake? it can really help with those pin holes and such. :happy055:

yay milkshake/pepto good stuff. I use it a lot on the inside of my sealed enclosures and give the whole interior a good coat for a great seal.

milkshake is a blend of resin and bondo. i call it pepto because when you add the red colored bondo hardener, it looks like pepto bismol
