Default Use PROTECTION!!!!

after initially getting my sub installed i began to fret and worry about things damaging the sub, and i would get really worried about ppl putting things in my boot. i decided to go and get a sub protector after looking at what was out there which was only plastic crappy ones that wouldnt really take a decent beating (im after sumthing SOLID) and the only metal one was wog crome. so i eventually bought that one which cost me 30 bucks, got some sand paper and sanded it back to a rough surface and then sprayed painted it matt black. and here are some of the pictures that i took.

Nah just joking. Looks good. Might have to get one for my sub, the girlfriend doesn't like to take care of my things like she does hers.
