I am not a ice guy per se, but a couple of my favs are Bluelex and LXOgood, always have been. DaveGS4's is a looker also. I saw Ted920s setup at SEMA IAS and it was nice. TTpimp had a nice simple setup (stealth).
Lexus11 has a simple but very effective setup.
Hell what do i know, I still have the damn Nakimichi HU in my car! LOL

you should definately add a tv or some for show reasons if thats what your looking for....When i redo my system i'm going to fiberglass it but not have it painted , i'm going to do a combo of blk and blu suede like my interior, i already have the suede put away. this keeps it flashy yet clean and unricey. something like what lxogood did.. Dave trunk is really nice aswell very compact..it really depends are you going to use up the whole trunk or you actually want to be able to use the trunk for other things..as far as what kind of subs and amps man you have big J in your area he'll help you out with that..

My man glad to see you are getting some ideas for what you want to do. I will be more than honored to do your system for you bro, just gotta holla at me like we discussed.
Shabs we got it covered bro
As for the system it self, well I was thinking about using the new JL Audio cleansweep which will allow you to keep your stock headunit(screen) do a couple amps on a nice rack and a single w7 in the trunk in a nice custom enclosure. Just sit back and enjoy what we create lol.

my opinion
I would go with all of the same product If changing head units is out of the question jl makes a item for stock headunits with aftermarket components, ipods, subs ect. I don't have a real flashy setup, just some leds inside the plexi glass. Battery in the floor of the trunk, which is seen through the plexi. Cap on the right side which is visiable thru plexi as well. And my amp rack on the back wall. With a few leds, and neon tubes lining the rack, see each amp thru plexi as well.
Its nice, still have my cleaning supplies in the trunk and not scratch any fiberglass. The box was mounted to a bar i welding in behind my seats. My two w7's are shot up into the cabin, I had to redo my entire rear deck lid twice. Lots of work, Its carpet with two wooden bezels surrounding the subs. pictures are worth a 1000 words..sorry I don't have any...
the jl item is called clean sweep for the oem headunit.

why don't you call me for once???
im not looking to spend the amount that we talked about
im not an audio guy ....to be honest i could really care less about what goes in my car
i know thats not the right attitude but i think you see from the rest of my car ...i like to have nice things and im more of a performance guy
i really love my stock system
the only reason i'm even considering do a system is because when you do shows
its pretty mandatory
and as far as TV's i just cant do it
ill just don the nav/tv thing if i do anything
thanks for everyone help

homie...if you think some "best buy" stuff is gonna cut it, you are surely also mistaken...
you can tell me bout rims, body kits, but the two things about cars I know are these:
1) audio
2) HID
and I can tell you, cheap audio doesnt sound good or look good or win shows, competition audio does and competition audio aint cheap or close to it (FYI if you are referring to JL, I have news for you and it certainly isn't good news)
just wait till my system is back in my GS, it'll knock your socks off (and yes it cost me a couple sets of your expensive iFORGED rims)

Only way to do that reasonably is to use the small ledge behind the seats as an enclosure or mount the subs in smaller individual enclosures right at the inside of the rear fenders or some kind of mounting under the rear deck. Everything else is pretty much gonna jut out too far and render your spare unaccessible.
im fond of DaveGS4's setup and Blue gs400
