Default So here's my trunk teaser show

Here's some pics! Hope you like them.

Big thanks to Vimean @ Autographcar.com, straight out of Philadelphia for coming up with such an awesome design for my trunk and a sick way to integrate all the components that I wanted in there. Theres about 5 more pieces that need to be fabricated, but I know people have been waiting for these pics! This is only a progress pic so check back next week for the finished product and a list of components used.






I know that using the whole trunk for audio is not everyone's cup of tea, but I have kind of made the decision that this car will get more in depth than any build I have done so far.

Check out our blog libertyvip.net for some additional commentary!

nice work... I'd like to see the finish product.

I contemplated doing my whole trunk, but I think it will slow me down too much...

Really? I think the supercharged V8 could handle it

Thanks dude... I figure this has to be a decent build if I got you to come out and comment, it's like I've grown in to a different league right now.

I can't say that I know how either, but Autographcar sure as hell does!

It'll just be something "simple". Two small footprint amps. I am trying to stay away from having to run a second battery so, yeah, simple.
