Whoa I thought you're also getting one boss Racio, Congrats Sherwin :)
The way our bro  posts is akin to a caffein overloaded Energizer Bunny on steroids who suddenly decided to pop speed pills while downing a dozen bottles of Red Bull! ;D

Still kinda' holding off on these, I'm really an open can fellow, I often drive around whilst listening to my gear. The isolation would make me too numb for road traffic. :-\

Congrats! Would you be so kind as to open them up or show us the baffle? Smeggy has been continuously improving the Thunderpants; I'm very curious as to how yours are made! I should have mine done this summer.

Hahahahaha!!! I really am going to be unable to do this for obvious reasons I think!!  ;D I will give you my impressions come time but opening it up is something I just don't have the courage to do.
