Speaker kick panels

Making these for a friend. Will hold a 4" and tweeter. His truck doesn't have the kick panel mounted e- brake pedal and he's not using the vents. What do you think so far.

Re: Speaker kick panels

Not bad. You should make some of these and post them on the F/S section.

Re: Speaker kick panels

Hole sawing the metal kickpanel isn't something I would look forward to doing (joke.. I kid)..

Laid the putty down on them last night and will do some sanding tonight.

Re: Speaker kick panels



It's what they look like. Couple coats of primer and done. You can have them for paint.

Just an FYI for people that asked. I have $20 of resin, $10-15 worth of putty, $20 worth of wood, and $5-10 worth of misc. So, $55 in materials. Plus, 10-12 of labor.. I don't think $200-250 is off base for these.
