Updated pics. Pods are glassed and covered with the white vinyl I bought. Everything went okay but in a few places that can't be seen in the car I have stretch marks from trying to do it all in one piece. I think once the pillars are painted it will be fine or I'll have my leather repair guy do some filling and sanding to help.

Pillars back from paint. They match perfectly. Here are a few pics on test fitment after back. The grill is not all the way pushed in.

I like the finished product, pillars look great.

I have no doubt that the sound is out of this world.

Pulled the Morel Elates out of the doors and replaced with 7" Scan Speak Revelators. The Morels had some issues at 100 and 250 hrtz that my processor couldn't fix. My buddy Steve that finished my trunk put in a used set of Revelators and said the car sounds phenomenal. The cones on the drivers in the pics don't look great but they still play great. Here's some pics of what he did from cutting the hole bigger and adding more acoustic foam. My new Revelators will be here tomorrow.

Okay boys and girls, the wheels are on. These aren't great pics but best I could do at that time. These pics don't do the car justice, wheels look fantastic on it. I was scared in the beginning but couldn't be happier now. I really feel like the car is mine now and not SW's.

So my H701 decided to take a crap. Noise floor issue. I've been wanting a H800 so here we go. The 701 was mounted below my amp rack before. Steve and I decided to move it to be able to get to things better. He found this locations and did a bang up job of getting it in there. The extra tuning benefits have been a blessing and the new Rux is so small it will fit in my ashtray assembly.
