Great artistic skills on the car tatoo. You're car is certainly unique. I wonder how much labour goes into touching it up. I bet you don't mind if it's done by those sweet artists. Can't wait to see what you have lined up for Phase 2.

I remember seeing this at The Pursuit too and thought it was absolutely badass, plus I like graffiti art too.

For the Audio system, we decided to go with a MMats ProAudio 2100 Watt Amplifier for the sub and a custom Nuforce amplifier for the speakers inside - most likely will be some Focal component speakers. we'll see.

first things first....
remove all of the interior and get some design going.

Rear seats and stock sub comes off

time for a template:

it was made to fit the curves on the bottom of the speaker, and then will use a a piece of wood later to build the final. must be able to hold the finished 21" speaker inside without rattles.

Next up.... need to start plugging in all holes and seal them with silicone glue, then dynamat the trunk.

going to SEMA this week, so will update once we get all the parts in.

the car is WILD. i dont think i would particularly like it in person, but the idea is amazing, the pictures all look amazing, and getting recognized by lexus and tunerplayground and sema (and all the sexy ladies) is a major +++

hardwired? this means its built into the dash? or is it the external unit you plug into the cig lighter?

Thanks -
hardwired means the unit is wired to a continuous 12V someone in the car. This way its on when it turn on the car and off when i turn it off, also doesnt have a wire dangling in the center. tucked into the headliner.
