    And damn think the box is big enough? Reminds me of a friend who has a box like that in his Thunderbird. But anyways, looks good though, time for some paint.
    Thinking about getting a new 3g...

    yeah, all work was self done, no money spent in work except for sandpaper, primer, filler, metal; just supplies. i did it slowly, because i had limited shop usage, but you can see how it came along on my cardomain page. the primer on the car is just black filler primer. the car needed to be one color, because the time between when i got it to about feb. 9th, the thing was ugly, so i got into gear and finished shaving. the hardest part was comverting the fenders and quarters from this

    to this

    to this


    and then the result

    You will get better sound if you tip the box and face the subs towards the opening in the trunk.....Otherwise looks really good.

    Hey Koney, love the aluminum face on the gauge area. Did you make that or buy it.

    oh yeah, thats homemade, thanks for noticing, i used some aluminum paint and sprayed it, i think i like it better than the gauges paul made, i printed those out and was gonna put em on, but i like mine better, and the stock lighting from the top looks really good, ill try to get some night pics, as for the box, thats the fifth set of spkrs ive had in the car, the first set if 15's barely fit facing like u all say, but a box for fifteens that is of adequate size fills up a lot of trunk when positioned like that, so most of the sound pressure doesnt come through clearly, but u guys should try it, it may look crappy for now, but the sq in the car is conclusive enough its freekin loud!! but thanks for looking, also, anyone know if coilovers for a 92-95 civic will fit our cars, cuz i can get a set for like 20 bucks over at KMA (look at my link) but thats the only set and somebody bought em and never picked em up, so if i can score, im gonna do it, thanks.
