Default Chesapeake Custom Audio

Took Sneaks down to Shagsters mancave to have the stereo system done. He's started his own business, Chesapeake Custom Audio. Neil does the absolute BEST custom work. Bar none! If you haven't seen some of his work, you're missing out.
We're doing a double din Kenwood that I got from WKMCD. Alpine door and rear speakers, Alpine amp, and JL Audio sub. Neal custom builds every sub box. No cookie cutter, off the shelf, boxes in his shop.
Only got a couple pics, but I'll grab some more tomorrow when I go back down and finish it up.
Torn apart:

Shagster doing what he does. No quick connects here. All soldered connections son:

And the new shop Supervisor, Sammie, checking to make sure the work is done right.


Touch screen, navigation, Sirius radio(once I get the right dam interface, since they sent me the wrong one), bluetooh. Gonna be a really sweet upgrade from the stock Blose.
Gotta thank WKMCD for the Kenwood, and the bezel. Thanks dude!
Anyone in this area looking for custom audio work on anything, you have got to check out Shagstgers work. There's a reason we call him the Wiz.

Got back down to The Mancave to finish up today:
The sub box glassed, sanded and ready to be covered:



Installed:



Getting the wiring ready for the amp:



Shags had to custom make a power harness for the head unit:



It's alive! :



You know it's good when you get the Z06Joe seal of approval:




Joe, why you always gotta be screwin' with somebody's rear end man?



Got to send out big thanks to WKMCD for the head unit and the bezel. Joe for coming and lending a hand. Most of all I wanna thank Shagster for doing what he do, making it look as great as it sounds!
