That's a beautiful piece you have there. And, if someone kicks it, I would royally kick their ***! Are the kicks sealed, and are you leaving your tweeters in the doors?

GREAT looking kicks there...Are you venting them into carpet or into the frame or how...Wheres the tweet?

I would guess that a grill fits over it that he took off for the pic. He is competing...no grill wouldn't be good.

Did you have someone make those for you, or did you do it yourself?

We ran them IB per Don's recommendation. The tweets will stay in the doors. I cant even begin to tell you the stage and image i have. I have to have the grills on when competing, but i LOVE to show em off. LOL Thanks Brotha!!

Here are some more, Its hard to get a good pic of all the lights but this will give you an idea. the side pannels are now done but not in the pics. the side pannel on the left houses all my wires and spare fuses and is covered by etched plexi. the pannel on the right houses tools needed to make minor repairs that were provided by one of my sponsers, MATCO tools.

I don't think I could cope with putting down that much money on my stereo unless I insured it or something. Don't get me wrong, I plan on buying good stuff. But I don't think I'll be putting over $5G's into car audio for a long while.

amazing job by the way. Question though did you use the orginal panel and build around that like the plastic orginal pnael becuase i just dont get how you could get it to pop into place otherwise.

Sexxy system, I've always love the look of kick's. I'd say tho you should rig up some led's in the grill to light up the speakers like the sub.......
