Why are there not any matching pics of the back of the boards? I wanna see each and ever single solder joing that accompanies each componant. Can you get some close up of the power lug screw threads? How about some close ups of the plexi windows? You have left sooo much out.....

This will make you laugh hard, I was considering desoldering EVERY component just so I could resolder it with silver solder.....so it would look nice

Ok, why did you cut the finger guard off the fan hole?

I will be installing a different style fan guard ( finger guard ), ( grill )

Whatever you want to call it

I might go with a mesh screening as well on all the vented ( open ) areas

No inside....brought it outside for pictures....where I paint is a mess and I didn't want you to see it

There is no clearcoat on it yet, so even if it gets dust or dirt on it....it's not a problem.....I've fixed so many paintjobs for paintshops, I'm not sure that such a thing as unfixable exists when it comes to paint.

Unless you scratch down to the primer...it's fixable....even if you have clearcoat peeling off your hood....I can fix that 2

Also, any paintjob must be wetsanded and colorsanded to get that ultimate deep shine and super smooth finish.

why are you painting it on top of a t-shirt? Seems like a great way to pick up dust? I have painted more then a few pieces on my trash can, but it is black already.

No reason other than I got hot, and the top of the trashcan was available for my shirt

I'm painting inside so the amount of dust is very minimal. I will be adding a " effect " to the paint on the next coat.

And I found a old Sony amp to practice shooting the Ti finish at.

Looking good. I need to sand the bottom of mine tonight, clean and prime. I all ready bought the mesh for my vent, so weird you mentioned doing that!?!

Did you get diamond cut mesh ?

Misfire · Post by **Misfire** » Wed May 27, 2009 8:27 pm

No, I got a fine mesh, which I am thinking of painting dark grey or black. I wanted fine to reduce anything getting into the amp... mainly cause the dogs do ride in the back of my Bronce on trips to the in-laws!

How does this look for a Ti finish ?

Post by **Wakeup** » Wed May 27, 2009 11:31 pm

BTW I think you posted EARLIER with that "Fusion" symbol...don't do it!!!

As for Fusion amps/subs etc....

it is their logo. So don't do it!

I can't find your post on it anymore...so I am guessing you decided against it? or either that I am imagining things...I can't find the post anywhere right now.

O come on, mine is so much better though

ya.....I dunno hehe....
I really would hate for people who are into fusion especially if you go green like you had before....would make it toooo similar....

Plus that Biohazard has been used on computer fan grills like forever.
I used to sell them by the handfuls....4 or 5 at a time, cuz people would want to change every grill on their case....
then....I couldn't even give them away after a while hehe...
