As alot of you guys know, I re-done my stereo. Well, I had some problems with the finish. So, I had to repaint the piece I made to cover my amp up. Do you guys think I should leave the "JL Audio" logo off and put a new on one? Here are a few pictures:

 

and without:

 

I say leave it off, but I like the clean look of cars.

 

I like it on there. Without the logo it appears to be "missing" something.

 

i like it better with the jl

 

I like off...I t would look badd *** with an AMP showing in that spot.

 

maybe some other type of logo instead of the JL cause i agree without it looks a little plain it needs something to break it up a little. But just a regular bowtie wouldn't do it. of course i could be wrong

 

I agree...and I REALLY thought about doing that. I wish it wasn't to late.... I already finished it. I had to DA it, coat it all with body filler, block it, feather it out, apply glaze, prime, then paint...just waiting on a coat of flat clear now

 

i like the way mine is shawn. do like this

3... I honestly think you should delete the logo tho. To Much JL going on, jmo tho

 

yours looks cool nick...but I don't want any visible wires, carpet..or anything like that....I'm just going for a different style

 

thats cool shawn. Just throwing some ideas out

 

Hows that sound Nick/Shawn?

 

If JL isn't paying you, ditch it.

 

I like it on. Don't know why, but it looks sleek and classy. But then again, this may be swayed by the fact I think if you leave it off, it will look like something that should be there (amp, logo, whatever), isn't.

 

might be because he photoshopped it... you can see where the shades are a little wrong, so it makes it look like something should be there.

 

Well hows this then?

 

I can't sleep

 

i would leave the jl off also but it does need some other kind of detail... the grey bowtie is cool... maybe somthing ghosted with a white pearl. flame would be ok but i don;t think it goes with your clean style of car.

heartbeat of america with the wave form in ghost pearl maybe?

what other slogans did gm have in the 80's

one other thought is to put a 10 or 12 inch monitor in there that would look good..

That location looks like a great place to flush mount your amps. Flush mounting hides all the wires, and gives a nice professional appearance.

 

Passengers would have a hard time watching a movie or playing on the PS2 if it was way back there

 

I agree. Plus you see the logos on the subs....its overkill. I would leave it blank.

 

hehe, wasnt trying to diss you or anything... but that gets my vote, really clean looking. how did you make that, anyway?

 

thanks for the photoshops guys. I do like the idea of having a slighty darker chevy sign...that looks pretty cool

 

Clone tool, healing brush, and blur

Without the girls and flames:

 

that looks really good too..
and i mean, how did you make that subbox/rear cargo area?

 

damn that car is mint (84custom). Just look at the tail lights etc lol i want

 

i like the photoshop with the bowtie in the center thats what id do if i was you...car looks awesome man

the top of your tailights have more shine then my paint...lol

 

I polished the **** out of the taillights

I made the amp cover with wood...and alot of trail and error work...and some imagination. But....I really wish I could have flush mounted the amp from behind...or...have maybe a clear plexiglass window...and the amp beneath it...aww well

 

what a polished custom Z28 emblem

 

...how about a "Z-28" logo ? ...or a brushed aluminum bowtie to match the one on your grill?

 

lol no brushed alum bowtie!!

A 3D Z28 logo would look tight. Just cut the pieces out of foam and then glue some black material over it (your choice of course). While your at it you might want to make that peice flat and have the subs match up at that height... or make it all one piece and cover your plastics in the same material. Just too many flat lines/angles mixed with the curves of the plastics and differences in texture of the stuff. Everything needs to go together.
