Mmmmm 2x12" JBL ... i bet that rips your back to pieces :) Looks nice too, nicely colour coded with everything else.

If it was mine ( note the IF) i'd have been tempted to make a longer wider flatter box that was more in the shape of the rear seat bench so it wasn't quite so obvious - however i suspect stealth wasn't high on your agenda :)

It's a JL HO box specifically purpose built for those subs ;)

I'll be honest i'm not into modifying cars as my thought is if your going to mod a car to be what you want then you should just buy that one........ BUT i really like your car surcalation, you've changed quite a few opinions i had on modified cars with this one. The door cards and red seat belts look great ;)

Not the kind of thing I would have done, but top marks for effort, it all looks pretty tidy.

Im quite into modifying cars and i can see your point. The only problem is that you cant always get a car to be what you want it to be. Alot of the time you have to mod it to get it the way you want it.

I second that, I would much prefer to spend that little extra time and thought to make it exactly how i want it and know that ive done it myself. I think that there is alot of pride in that, and you get so much satisfaction when somebody notices the effort you have put it.

I don't think "Newbies" can have signitures 'til they become full members.

Check the rules it will be in there.
