LOLz good one Berg!!
That's what Ian is going to look like when he gets his ear next to those new blue speakers.
Did you go with spots this time around or floods on all 3?
looks like this years order the casing is a little darker grey than the first set on group buy!
The 2 new ones are floods, and the existing is a spot. I couldn't determine if the new cases are darker, or if the old one is faded.
A guy on the Supra forum brought up the color issue as well. I talked to Darric and he told me they changed the finish since the first group buy. Like you say, its all under water anyway.
I put a little time into the trim plate to cover the sub enclosure this weekend, here is what I came up with;
I made the faceplate out of 1/4" Starboard - I didn't like the way it came out around the corners, I should have rounded them rather than going squared off, not sure what I was thinking there;

So, I decided I'd make an acrylic trim ring, to be illuminated with blue LEDs, just like the cabin speakers.
Clear, rough cut to size;

I used a router to round the edges;

And then lots of sanding. I ordered the LED strip online, once it arrives I'll cut out the center and get this aspect of the project wrapped up;

So everytime I has up and it comes back out of the filler neck I don't do anything. Just never worried about it. Does this negatively affect the gel coat or something?
You should try to wash it off or at least wipe it off. It evaporates pretty quickly on days it's nice enough to be putting gas in the boat though.
I think it will take any wax right off the boat but you would need extended saturation to damage the gel.
You're making me jealous Ian! Keep up the good work, can't wait to see those LED's in the water and I love the unique placement of the tower cans. Where did you pick up the acrylic for the LED sub enclosure trim?
