Mr Cali

Ok a few more steps. I was a lil impatient with the drying so I stuck it in the oven at the lowest temp setting. If you do this becarefull not to have it too hot cause the hot glue will melt. It took about 30mins for mine to go hard. I then trimmed all the fabric off and then used a Dremel to clean the rest of the edges. Sanded it back to get rid of all the lumpy bits Ok at this stage you can choose to take the easy way out and just cover it up with vinyl or prep for painting. I opted for a carbon fiber finish, a lil bit more work but well worth me thinks. So the first step is masking off the area you want to use in the CF, this is important to stop fraying and pulling of the strands. CF requires a diff resin then FG, the resin needs to be clear so you can show off that nice weave. I have chosen to use surf board resin as it's easier to sand back and polish afterwards. The laying of the CF was pretty hard as it was all one sheet. Trick here is to put resin on the sail first, lay the CF on and then apply resin on top. You kinda have to wait till the resin is tacky so it can stick to the sail. then lay heaps of coats on so you can sand it with out going through later on. Will have to wait 24hrs now for it to dry, no hurrying up this process unfortunately.

Now is the fun part You will need these products and tools to complete this stage. Resin Activator (Hardener) Latex gloves Mixing container Cheap paint brushes (discard when finished) You then simply pour the resin in the container and then drop some activator into it. Ratio should be 1/100 but it was a cold day today so I mixed in about 5% so it will dry faster. Use your brush and mixed the resin up with the hardener, making sure that you have mixed it well. Apply the resin with the brush, making sure that you have saturated the fabric and for it to seep through to bond with the plastic. Try not get too much on the back of the sail, cause you will need to trim if off later. Also dont apply any to the area where the tweeter mounts, this will make it easier to trim off. Now just waiting for it to dry.

Hi guys, Over the last few days I've been busy mounting my tweeters to the plastic sail piece behind the side mirrors. I decided to write a how to on this to help others that may want to do the same. Note that you can use this method to mount speakers on your A pillars too. Anyway here it is, I originally posted it up on another forum but since my car is a Skyline I thought I would post it here. Ok had some time spare today so I thought I would make a costum mount for the tweeters. Again I will write it up as a how to just in case you guys want to do the same. The location was pretty hard to decide, it was either the sail trim or the A pillar. I spent an hour with the using BluTac and tweeter location / angle before deciding with the sail trim. A second person would come in handy to do this, so you dont have to go back and foward. Note: YOu can do the same process to mount the tweeters in your A pillars Imaging is a big deal for me, so took ages to the angle just right with the BluTac, and once getting the ideal position I hot glued it in place. Once the hot glue cools and bonds, make sure that you add more glue to make sure that the bond is strong enough to stretch fabric over it without breaking. Note: Before you start gluing make sure that you roughen up the surface with coarse sand paper and then use Prepsol to clean the surface. Once the hot glue cools down you then cut a piece of elastic fabric to cover the whole piece. I got this fabric from Lindcraft for $3.99 per meter. Use some super glue and start with the tight corners. I put some on the plastic and used a flat head screw driver to push it into the corners. Do small bits at a time, and practice stretching the fabric over before using glue. It should look like this. Tomorrow I will simply use fibre glass resin to harden and bond the fabric to to the plastic.

I could only find the APX1301 amp on that website. If thats the same amp consider it sold. PM me your details and I will pick up if thats the case

Paint stripped all parts, then gave it a light rubb with 320 Spayed them with 3 coats of edge primer, this gave it enough build to remove all grains and edge primer is very easy to rub. Spray a quick guide coat to sand it back with 800 Applied about 4 coats of silver, then 4 coats of the candy purple (the more coats the darker it gets) and then 4 coats of clear. My mate owns Xclusive Colours in Smithville so access to this stuff was easy The silver used is corse silver mixed with the new Mazda white pearls The purple I will keep a secret, might be using it on other things. But there's alot of colours and pearls in there to create that colour.

if for any reason it falls through let me know mate, can't believe I missed this thread

do you mind posting a pic of the back of it mate

Just did mine on the weekend. I mixed this custom candy purple. Also painted the other bits silver for a nice contrast.

Do you have a power steering pump mate, if so how much

Hi mate, Interested in some of the wheels but frustrated why you don't just list all the prices for all to see, surely you dont have different prices for each customer. Any chance you can list all your prices.
