Not really a fan of the grill and I felt our stock stereo was sufficient, but I suppose thats cool. The tailights look good. Next, lower it and put a shorty antenna on there!

Also, whats with the Nike swoosh??

Get that Nike **** off, that's horrible. Looks good minus that and the grill, looks like it has braces.

^ the original post says tell me what you think guy. that doesn't mean tell him only nice and sweet things just in case he might get his feelings hurt.

I think you should mount the amp on the back side of the box because it will make it look cleaner. heck, maybe just center it on top looks weird where it's at in the pic. also if you mount it on the back it'll help you hide some of those wires. Other then that looks good man I like the grills aside from the fact that I personally don't like chrome. good job!

Who's bashing him? He asked for opinions and we gave them. I'm sure everyone on here has received both good and bad comments on something they've done with their car. Thats how a forum is.

yea well i play alot of sports and stuff and nike is the only kind of athletic gear i wear so i just put it up there i think it loks pretty sick in person, i get alot of coments on it considering the fact that everyone at my school has either a monster sticker a volcom sticker or a ronjon surfshop sticker, so i kept it original and different n got the swoosh=]

I suppose. I don't really listen to alot of rap, so tons of bass isn't really that important to me. And the little bit of rap I do listen to sounds fantastic with the stock 10" I think. I don't like it when bass overpowers the rest of the music. Plus, my car is LOUD as f**k, and when I pull into parking lots and whatnot, I usually turn the music down and listen to my car idle down, b/c it burbles, pops and cracks more than a damn SRT-4, lol.

i already had the amp mounted on the back side, the subs hit so hard that the screws kept coming off and teh amp would just fall off my amp so i put it on top, and there a reason why its not in the middle, i ddint just do that 2 be different..lol as u can see with the pic with my capacitor my wires that go from my cap to my amp are rly short so i had to make it as close to the amp as possible....

Word. I'm gonna just run my stock speakers until they go, and then MAYBE replace them, lol.

I got 58k on my car and I listen to music every time I drive and they still sound perfect, so....so far so good.

I bought my springs over 2 years ago from TireRack.com. They're Eibach Sportlines, and they were $250 new. My friend and I lowered it ourselves, so not sure what its gonna cost you to have it lowered. Really depends on what the shop you take it to charges per hour for labor. But my friends and I all lowered our cars ourselves. Its not that hard. You just need a spring compressor and some patience.
