Future mods:
replace factory balast hard tanks
custom surf gate
LEDs throughout interior (red)
underwater transom LEDs (white)
tower light bar front and rear facing
tower flag(3x5) pole, top dead center
tint windshield 5%, powder coat windshield frame black
New Bimini to sit rite under wet sounds.
Maintenance:
Rebuild fuel sending unit (gauge reads dead zero but seems that it wants to function rite)
gauge cluster illumination not working on dash (ballast tank level illuminates fine)
Bow docking lights not working
Crack in left rear tower base plate needs to be welded
Custom spare tire mount
replace trailer hull carpet/supports
trailer tires(maybe next year)
Had it for about two weeks and this is my list so far, here we go.

I really like this boat. Powder coating the windshield frame is a great idea. I had the dealer do that on my 05 before delivery and loved it. Maybe consider powder coating the rear vents as well. If you do 5% on the windshield, you won't be able to see anything through it. 20% gives you the same look, but keeps the windshield functional. What do you have for a sub?

As far as the audio setup goes:
Kenwood KDC marine deck in the box with a transom remote on the dash
Arc audio XEQ
Arc 1200.1 pushing two Arc black series 10v2 subs
Arc 600.2 pushing the wet sound rev410's on the tower
Arc 300.2 on the interior 4x Arc 602's
3 deep cycle marine battery's on a isolated charging system (separate from running battery)

Wow what a beauty! Don't think I have seen that color combo in that scheme before. Powder coating the windshield will really help set it off.
Your bimini looks to be in good shape, why not just mount it to the tower and add rear legs so it can stay in place when you have it booted. All you need to know is in my DIY thread below.

When you get a chance, add a close up pic of how your bimini attaches to the windshield. Tough to tell form that pic but if it attaches the way that most do then I bet you can reuse that bimini and only need $30-40 in parts. Actually now that I think about it I have a bunch of new in box parts leftover from my install. I over ordered because I didn't realize a lot of the stuff came in pairs and I never bothered to return it. I just checked and I have everything you need except for the pole and one set of connections. If this will work for you I can hook you up with a deal on them but if not no sweat at all. Enjoy the new ride!Shawn

Thanks man, yea I think your rite my buddy has that issue but it's that deep dark look I want so maybe 15% is a good medium for me.

Any darker and I'd have to look over the windshield unless I was driving into the sun near sunset. 20% would have been better, but my installer didn't offer it and no way I was gonna only do 35% in an all black boat. Where are your subs located? I'm guessing this was a Larson boat and Lightning did the audio. I used to have the same sub setup by them. I later upgraded to something that blew doors on the original. If you ever decide to upgrade that sub setup, PM me. I'm local. you can keep the amp. Just an upgrade of the sub and it's enclosure under the driver's side.

Ok rite on I'll probably go 20% then 👍🏻. No someone else did the audio, wasn't a shop though. The subs are in a custom box behind the driver seat, nothing rattles and they sound great! What sub setup are you running now?
