I wasn't so much for the Gold one either, but it's not mine. I, on the other hand, like the ends in White against the Black. I'm not sure how to describe the way it appeals to me.
I dunno the right word for it but i just point welded the seam. But thanks for the tip! 8)

And i for sure will leave it as it is. At some point i want to start installing the stuff and not just working on the amps theirselfes.

BUT REMEMBER you do already have a bunch of shit heading your way anyways so it could (or other stuff could howvere one looks at it) could piggy back its way back with the shroud... which is an expense already in the works.
BUT BUT i perfectly understand the fact of $ and time...
i can appreciate that- BUT did want to correct/pin down that figure for you just as an FYI
Thanks for the offer Matt but i would have to ship 2 shrouds then :shock: That would break the bank for sure. Id rather get some power wire for all that money.

And the grilles stay white. It so fits the white tops of the blue caps! And it makes the whole thing look bigger too!

It looks fantastic... It really do. Picture saved in my "MS1000" folder ofcourse, hehe..

(I have sold 3 of those shrouds, and I might regret that now. I should have done this myself, But I do not know if I have the room for all those shrouds in my car/install...

Just incredible Joerg. Was scared a little when you cut the shrouds, but it was well worth it! Awesome execution of a brilliant idea!

When you going into production?????
