alright fellas.... i got an update... but its not that great

so i clayed my car today because i wanted to seal her with paint sealer.... im pretty careful and i washed her, 2 bucket method... blasted the sh!t outa her with so much water.... i always buy new clay bars when i clay my z.... but today was so i began claying the hood... when i first ran the clay bar i looked at it and there was a small rock... like idk wtf and where it came from... but it but a pretty good scratch on it about two feet long i tried buffing it with some compounds... but no dice... looks like i gotta get it sanded with like 3000 grit and buffed out.. THANK GOD i didnt press hard on the clay bar or it would have been not good. i addressed the other minor scratches and did paint corrections... still doing good with the swirls... none so far and ive had her for about 4 months now... put the cover on her

before the whole cleaning incident i began taking measurements for my enclosure... and fml... ORIGINALLY i thought that i could use my 12 W3 V3 for my sub enclosure idea... I went ahead and gave it a try but it would be impossible to work, since i already ordered the mdf rings i opted for a 12'' shallow mount sub. I was able to stage it today and came in to one conclusion the 12 mdf ring will NOT fit... i could make it fit but in the end the box wont flow like i wanted it... it would protrude and look funky... i havent came out with the final conclusion on what size sub i can run but one thing is for sure 12 is outa the question... so i burned 25 bucks on the ring its gonna look like even a 10 is cutting it pretty close... i know a 8 would fit no problem and would make the box proportionate but it feels so puny never in my life have i ran anything less than a 10.... the biggest ive done was 4 12's in my old pathfinder and it rocked... (sorry i used to be a bass junky lol) i still gotta recheck and calculate everything for this part... ill update you guys again when i figure it out...

NOW as for my old audio... its long gone... zerodark on this forum bought everything from me ... here is the funny part, my wifes bday was saturday, and who here wants to guess what happened next all im gonna say is ive never seen her so happy but my z took a hit for the team lol no sounds for a while....

evor said he shipped my emblems out already like 2 days ago hopefully well see it soon....

time to work some overtime and make up what ive lost lol
