Upgrades to your Formula! What have you done?
Here we go.
Since we have ALL added a little "Bling" to our boats, how about we share the thoughts and ideas with other owners. They are all here across the Formula Forum, but a quick overview of each specific project, and a couple of shots can't hurt! Put the model of your boat in the description, then post a brief overview of the project and include a couple of pictures to share. Then answer the usual Q & A. The best compliment anyone can and will pay, is an upgrade from your idea! Dave |

1 - Go to advanced to start the post.
2 - Year and make of your boat in the title 3 - Post away! Here is an example: Changed the color of the white pieces on my bolster seats to a candy red. First I disassembled the bolster seats removing all of the metal parts. Took them to the sandblast booth and let them have it. The aluminum casting wasn't that smooth, so we filled the little holes with some filler. Then after a quick shot of zinc primer powder coat and a finish sand, we laid a chrome base (powdercoat) and then a Candy Red finish (powdercoat as well). Re-assembly complete! New look! Dave |

I'll post the list. If anyone wants any pictures of a particular update let me know, and I'll add them. Otherwise, I'd totally hijack this post...

AXAPOWELL,
Looks Great, I am interested seeing some better pics of the speaker pods behind/beside the bolsters. Speakers look like they are sitting in mid air. In the process of installing new system in my boat, always looking for ideas. |

AXAPOWELL,
Looks Great, I am interested seeing some better pics of the speaker pods behind/beside the bolsters. Speakers look like they are sitting in mid air. In the process of installing new system in my boat, always looking for ideas. I went to the drawing board several times to get it right and this is the final design. These are made from Corian countertop material. Several different diameter 1/2" thick rings (CNC'd) and then adheared together, sanded smooth and then painted. The holes for the grill actually mount the speaker to the pod, so I taped the pods, duramixed heli-coils into the Corian and then used stainless steel allen heads. The speakers are 8" coaxial Memphis Audio Marine. Great speaker if you amp them! I have a pair of 6 X 9's (Memphis as well) up front in the stock location and a Pro Diamond Audio 10" sub buried in the gunwhale on the port side. Pioneer deck with a dash mounted remote and a Memphis Bell 5 channel hybrid (4 channel for the speakers and a mono block for the sub in one chassis). I plan to replace the deck with a new Alpine, wireless remote, and a couple of sub-woofers this spring (if I get to it). Dave |

Your 357 project was impressive! Great perseverance and attention to detail; it really did look like a 2000+ interior. Do I read your post to say that you sold that boat and bought a 382?
I have removed all the upholstery up top and redoing it right now. I will be posting all pictures involved with the new interior and stereo install when it progresses alittle further. |
