Getting the first one done. Hoping to get two primed tonight.

First pis is two coats of self etch. The second is a third coat after wet sanding with 400 grit paper

Thanks though I should have primer on tonight so stay tuned
I'm sure they still sound great not to mention its all about music preference anyways so if you don't want 12s you don't need em! The primer on the wheels is looking good btw I can't wait to see where you go with em!

Yeah I hear ya. That's why I didn't do 12s. It's the first set of 10s I've ever had since I've started driving. I listen to a lot of country anyway so I don't need stupid bass but sometimes I like to blast the ol hip hop and hear my music

Here's the barrels primed! Paint goes on tomorrow!

Well guys and gals, they are completed (kind of) lol

I need to wet sand the top clear coat and reapply but other than that I'm super happy with how they turned out!

Thank you! I'm pretty happy with the way they turned out. Especially as much time as I've put into them this week lol. There's a few small imperfections I've gotta take care of but no one should be that close anyway it's just something I'll always see
