August 1, 201015 yr Author Now that the rear of the car is done on the outside we think it is about time to start putting together the hatch area. Some pics of the components going in the back.We got the hatch panels installed. If the rca connections look a little weird they will make some sence once we start getting the sub enclosures installed.By sefugi at 2010-07-31By sefugi at 2010-07-31By sefugi at 2010-07-31Here are the subs. 2-10's and 1-15.By sefugi at 2010-07-31By sefugi at 2010-07-31Amps will be as follows-2 4channels and 2 monoblocks.By sefugi at 2010-07-31By sefugi at 2010-07-31By sefugi at 2010-07-31By sefugi at 2010-07-31
August 1, 201015 yr beautiful work! A+! as far as the woofers go IMO get rid of the 10s, give the 15 some more cubes and port it...maybe look into a PWK encosure for that vehicle. The guy is amazing and will give you exactly what your looking for. I understand if you wanna keep it the way you got it no matter what its awesome!
August 1, 201015 yr Author looking forward to seeing some tunes in here. Hopefully if all goes well we will in the next 2 weeks.

The guy is amazing and will give you exactly what your looking for. I understand if you wanna keep it the way you got it no matter what its awesome!Thanks for the kind words. Your right the 10's with the 15 has been some controversy, since the enclosures were origanally designed to fit together in the hatch and made from fiberglass we are sticking with it for now. Who knows we may rebuild at a later date.
August 1, 201015 yr The rear bumpa' looks clean. The tower style amps are interesting, I can think of all kinds of different ways to mount them.ALMOST time to start enjoying the car!!!!!
August 1, 201015 yr Author The rear bumpa' looks clean. The tower style amps are interesting, I can think of all kinds of different ways to mount them.ALMOST time to start enjoying the car!!!!!Thanks! Rear turned out good, if rest of body kit goes the same we will be in bussiness. My son choose the tower amps because they were different. With the amps standing up I'm a little sceptical if the mounting feet will hold up. Still a lot to do...
August 1, 201015 yr Author I am with everybody else and love the blue color as well. Paint looks great!Thanks!! The blue did turn out well for the conditions. (old fart, in a home garage, no experience, and an excited teen)

August 7, 201015 yr Author Holy hell man that is awesome! I'm loving the enclosures and those woofers are killer!! Thank You! We don't know yet if the enclosures will produce the sound we might want, but they have given us the look we wanted.
August 7, 201015 yr believe it or not..i just read through this entire thing..this is a pretty awesome build..and it being father and son build makes it even better..great job!
August 7, 201015 yr Author Starting to get things together that we have planned on for a few months now. Here are a few of them as we progress with the hatch install.The spider/speaker grilles for the tens in place.By sefugi at 2010-08-06This is a shot of the base that will partially support the amp rack and the neon tubes that will glow below the amp rack.By sefugi at 2010-08-06We did not like the spider grilles the way they were so what can you do??? Mod them!!!!!By sefugi at 2010-08-06What we did was drill through the spider eyes and mounted red leds to shine through them and mounted 2 blue leds under the body of the spider that will glow off the sub. Black silicone was used to keep the red light from shining on the subs and focused directly through the drill holes.By sefugi at 2010-08-06We tied in some spiral wire from the spider grill to its power connection to keep up appearances along with rca connections for a smooth transition to the hatch.By sefugi at 2010-08-06You can see in this picture how the spiral wire and the rca connections really help the look.By sefugi at 2010-08-06
August 7, 201015 yr Author believe it or not..i just read through this entire thing..this is a pretty awesome build..and it being father and son build makes it even better..great job!Thanks!! You read it a lot faster than we have built it LOL!
August 7, 201015 yr Author Here are a couple quick not so good pics to give you an idea of the leds in the spider grilles.By sefugi at 2010-08-06By sefugi at 2010-08-06
