Yes, I talked to the girlfriend of the owner... guys, watch your women at the shows :) But, she explained they did it in the molding cloth first with a circular speaker brace... then they just smoothed and finished it off. I have to say the setup is pretty nice. He had nice matching Qforms and nice set of Fostgate amps on lighted panels in the rear as well. But otherwise wasn't too gawdy.. but very nice all around. His chick was nice... all around as well.
