Nice write up mate, but it ain't that dodgy! A few times i've cut out MDF panels to cover service holes in the doors, but for anyone that's concearned about the wood swelling, teflon chopping boards...
We don't charge per dent, we only allow dealers a panel price, and thats because their too dumb to figure out a rough cost to PDR a trade in. $90 would be to repair a parking dent at your place.

Don't forget, how well the subs cope with the additional power also relies on the box too. A sealed box will gather heat after a while, too small of a ported box/vent will not allow the cone to move...
Not offhand, but unless anyone else chimes in with a diagram, a test light will tell you in 5 mins. Hook it to the door striker or anywhere on the chassis, once you've found 12v constant, you can use...

Roof's with sunroofs, especially BMW X5 and Accord/Euro's are horrible due to the maze of bracing underneath to hold the sunroof cassette up. An Accord/Euro roof with dents at the back of the roof...
It's not the only solution, but it's a big risk with anything 15yrs or older, re-sprayed cars, or CL7's and newer. Despite making thousands of successful repairs using glue-based dent pullers, i've...
Get a quote, and inspect the work they're doing for the price. Cheap is'nt always good, look for fish eyes, paint runs, bog rings, heavy orange peel, and poor mismatches. Expect to pay over $2500 for...
The install, not the speakers would have a bigger impact on how much bass & clarity you get out of your speakers, meaning:

Focal, like many other high end and boutique brands, have adopted a strict ebay/online sales policy; if you're found selling their products online, you're dropped as a retailer. They don't want one...
