shdw03 audio upgrade log

My first wrap attempt. The vinyl is a black color, interior a dark gray..... Crappy pick. Think it's ok. Have a small bubble on the top. Heat gun it out IMG_20191202_182328.jpgIMG_20191202_182239.jpgIMG_20191202_182223.jpg

Not a 100% wrinkle free. My fingers are burnt. I'm leaving these on the back side IMG_20191202_224651.jpg

That's good looking; I do agree, dark gray to match the interior would look better, but the texture is spot-on. Didn't think they had a vinyl with an interior texture like that but it's perfect

I didn't either, and pattern held up well even after stretching it. The downside, adhesion sucks after multiple stretching and repositioning.

Well I bit the bullet and bought the factory sub enclosure. A little sound deadening and sample the stock jbl.... Not bad at all! Powered off my rf prime 500, hits pretty good. The sub bass is not there, but probably better than an under seat mini sub. Waiting for my subwoofer spacer to arrive.

What it looks like with panel back one. Time for a beauty panel. Gonna have to rethink the subwoofer spacer. No room behind the pocket separator

Removed some internal bracing. Added poly-fil. Sounds much better than stock. Tighter, deeper and more controlled. Now the beauty panels

Bought a JL 8w3. Ported the stock enclosure to see how it would sound. Not bad

I an really interested in changing my stock sub to the JL you have. Do you think it would perform well with the stock JBL sub amp?

I appreciate the hard work you have put into your 4R. Nice job!

With an enclosure that small wouldn't a ported sub make it worse? i thought you needed like 1 cubic foot for a ported 8" enclosure, versus .25 cubic foot for an enclosed 8" sub with batting?
