I have been doing car audio for a while and have built many custom sound systems so I can appreciate the time that this would take to put together. I have a couple comments that I have to put out there. Where the main sub box comes together on the bottom needs to be finished and wrapped to the floor (if not a cover plate needs to be made). It looks like the box is just sitting on top of the rear seats and if you bring it down and form it into the floor it will really finish of the box. I can also see where the 2 piesces of MDF come together ( it just looks as if the box wasnt finished and rushed to paint). Secondly the door panels (in my opinion) look tacky with 3 different finishing textures and looks. U have nice looking kick pannels that really pop and then the factory grill and a third JL grill. If it was me I would seperate the door pannel right at the ridge above the origional grill and follow that nice line down the pannel and then glass that section and paint it to match the kick pannel. Also make all the grills the same. It will really make the doors pop and flow. In the trunk it looks as if you have 4 speakers where the factory 6 by 9's go but then you have a pannel of 6.5 components above them pointing forward blocking the view thru the rear window. It looks like they are covered completely and are basically useless. Dont understand what they are supposed to be doing?? Lastly I dont mind ropelights except for when you can clearly tell they are rope lights. Lighting adds alot of really nice effect but you shouldnt be able to see them. Just my 2 cents and not ment to be harsh just maybe giving you somethign to think about or for someone who wants to do something simular to think about. You have a ton of money in components and time in that car and really need to make sure that the fit and finish is perfect. The small details is what really seperats a nice system to a WOW system.
