Amp brackets have been made and have a couple coats of paint on them. I was able to fire things up, but only 70% of the system was running, still waiting on a couple things that i forgot that i needed to get the lids running.




Thank you T and Slye









Found the angle of the bottom if the bag




Heat with torch and used my the mallet to bend for the bottom of the bag.



Marked holes for the lid latch holes and amp




Had to notch for the false bag bottom lip in the Topshop bags.





Clean up all the edges and then paint.

While my lids are out to paint i decided to clean up the fairing wiring. Also added a pic of where i put the Arc PSM. This thing is tiny, awesome, and finally gave me the control i was missing with only bass and treble control
