Looks really good. What kind of subs are you running?

One question, though: is that a towel behind the amp rack? What for?

thanks guys,

to answer both questions:

-i'm actually running 12" Kicker Solobarics, and the towel is temporarily there until i get time to take it in for tinting.

-the box is actually from www.crutchfield.com . its a Q-logic sealed enclosure for dual 12's.

Your car looks really good. I love that hood and I am going to get one for sure. I couldn't really tell if that was a stock spoiler or not. I wish the pic of the box showed up a little better. Maybe I'll adjust the brightness on my monitor. anyway great looking car and I'm glad to see it's all coming together so nicely.

looks good, the thing i don't like about q-logic boxes from crutchfield is their price. i ordered mine from a cotalog at circuit city and it hits hard as hell. I just gotta make some panels that make it flush in but it looks good for now.

thanks miked for the comments. i'll know what you mean about the pictures of the box. i take another set when i get a chance and post them.

deadtrend1, you are absolutely right, the box is great, but the price hurt a bit. the black tail lights are make by GTS, and i ordered them a while ago, but i'm pretty sure that i got them through my local parts store. i'm pretty sure pepboys carries them as well, if there's one in the area.

any other ?'s, let me know.

ugg, i hate pepboys. Everytime i need a part they tell me to go find it. I went with my friend to get a lugnut because it got stripped and they are like "i dunno what one it is, its in the bin there, just look" or my other friend needed a brake line fitting and the guy actually took my friend behind the counter, and let my friend look for it. Ill check online.
Back on the box thing ... crutchfield has 5 1/4 kickpanels selling for i think 299.99 or something like that, and im just having DJ sexay make 6 1/2 ones for me. I dunno, i put every penny i have into my car and so that means i gotta cut as many corners as i can. I'm gonna try building my amps into my backseat, this site online here did it..

yeah i know what you mean, i kinda hesitated to put that in there.

i wanted kickpanels really bad at one point, and DJ's would've been a life saver. i may end up doing it just yet.

but that site was pretty cool, now ya go me thinking about future upgrades. hmmmmmmmm, the accent light was pretty cool too, i wanted one, but didnt know where to put it.

keep me updated, thanks...

yea, the only lighting i have in mine is a blacklight controlled by a switchi in the dash .. its not too bright though. Yea, that mounting rack in the seat is insane. I have one amp under my seat, and one on my deck. I have a pioneer i wanna put in to replace the one under my seat but it doesnt fit. So ill probably go into my seat.
if anyone wants to buy a soundstream referance 160 amp .... im selling mine.
