Kick panels

ok well i have the whole set up in my 89 firebird. Recently i just made a custom box which holds 1 12" Kicker L5 solo baric runnning from an Audiobahn A8000T amp which is 800 watts rms. I also have added Clarion 2 ways in the dash and Clarion 3 ways in the back. This is all being controlled by my Clarion DXZ655MP pro audio head unit. but my question is with what i have no if i geta set of kick panels with rockford 6.5" components in them and wire those up instead of the 4x6s how much of a difference will i get?

I'd reccomend a sealed fiberglass kick panel. The Q-Forms suck.

Click sig, then the Red 89 RS for pics of my kicks

Q-Forms definitly suck. I had them. They are Very thin and have no sound deadening which means no bass response. Plus they dont look good. The fit & finish blows. Definitly get some fiberglass ones made here.
