Decent subs and amp

I'm looking for a pair of decently priced 12" subs and an amp. I don't know much about car audio. I've got a Jensen deck from Wally World, and Kenwood 6x9's in the sail panels. So, as you can tell, I'm not big on bad *** systems. I just want a nice pair of subs and an amp that will thump even while I've got the t-tops off. Nothing fancy tho. I'd appreciate any info. Thanks,

How much $$$ do you want to spend?
Are you going to build the box yourself?

I've already got a box that's build for 2 12's. Around $350 is prob my limit. Can I get 2 12's and an amp for that?

You can get two Kicker Comp VR 12s for around $150 and then get a Kicker 400.1 amp for around $200-$210. All these are shipped prices that I found on ebay.

Comp VRs wont shake your state but they are very good speakers that will be heard aways from your car, especially with as nice of an amp as a Kicker. JBL bp amps are pretty nice too but i heard that they dont have a built in crossover(I have yet to verify this).
Hope this helps
