Mercedes Benz C 63 AMG sail panels for Focal Utopia M tweeter by LBaudio

[LBaudio]

Started to work on Sails for Merc C AMG... Those will be two part sails where one part will be wrapped in leather, and the center piece - insert will be painted in cars paint. Here are pics of fabrication. Ill post finished pics after the customer receive them.


so started with original part - I applyed a layer of fiberglass over the entire sail panel after it was sanded down and drilled a bounch of holes










trimmed and sanded down

Made a duplicate of sail fascia out of fiberglass that will serve as base for insert




trimmed

[LBaudio]

next step was positioning of tweeter cups (Thanks to Peter Steinbacher/PSsound for providing them), paint was removed from cups, everything was taped off with ALU tape. Tweeter cups were glued to the base with hot mixed filler
