well our son came home from the hospital today so had some time to run for a few supplies..

so i needed something to cut some expanding foam but needed it cut straight and even...so what do i think up?

thay are the sides of the "frame" for the box thats behind the rear seat
and this would be the part that sits infront of the sub

i put masking tape down then put some great stuff down to make somewhat of a seal.


i didnt put alot cuz nobody wants a mess with that lol
and here is what it looks like now


i added some more greatstuff to the areas i cut the foam down some. have to let dry now, moving to the trunk
didnt get alot of pics cuz my girl was on the phone gettin our sons meds and that taken care of...plus raining today FTL





that as far as i got today. had enough going on otherwise lol but ill get back at it. i was hoping to figure it out to make it all seamless but nope, the pieces wouldnt fit without being cut. oh well still looks ok for my first IMO
oh yeah and the trunk light is covered up so time to think, got some ideas though hahaaa
