Liking everything but the wheels. IMO paint the grill satin black to match the bonnet and colour code the bump strips. Otherwise ace!

Well, there is a lot of win, but a lot of fail in this thread

I'll start with the win

The colour, the Subs, the amp! All win

The 6x9's, alloys and air intake system are fail imo!

Where did you get the brackets to hold your sub in mate?

Cheers mate, n yer the 6x9s I think are going and getting a stealth shelf, the alloys were cheap and will be replaced with gloss black vts alloys and the intake has changed a bit and mostly for show. Btw I made the sub holders, I'm quite pleased with them as they are simple but do the job briliantly cheers mate!
