Yaya, found a TRD exhaust with no dents or dings, just some scratches for $200. I got it installed thanks to Tyler and now I am a happy little boy, I got a speeding ticket today though, a million cops everywhere because of the good weather and it was a BS scenario. Oh well, not gonna let it take me down

^^ IKR?!?!?
Tyler and I saw probably 4-5 cops from Bellevue to Lynwood, probably a few more of those buggers hiding. It ____es me off cause most cops now give you a ticket to just be a dick and take your money. The whole idea of giving someone a ticket for speeding SHOULD be to inform people to not speed to be safe and not get in an accident, not to avoid tickets.

I could teach you how to build a set,but not sure I want to build too many more of them,I am about $250 in materials inclding the speakers and many many hours of work.
Some things that would save lots of work is gettgin a premade set of rings sized to the speakers,I dont know how to cut a circle yet with a router so that is what took me so long to do....8 hours to make 2 circles....lol
Other than making the rings the rest is easy,jsut time consuming to sand layer after layer of bondo.

You ned to buy this Jasper circle jig:

I have 2 of them. One is just like the one in the link for subwoofer sizes and another for 7inches and smaller for woofer speakers. It makes cutting circles soooooooo easy.
There is a woodcraft in Seattle if you ever want to buy one.
