My mate is gonna build it for me, made a smal model, what do you reckon? The model is in 1/10th scale, gonna build a full size one out of cardboard tomorrow and hopfully get it all done within the next 2 weeks, finally, a year after getting the amp and speakers from the states!






EDIT - this is the amp and subs being used in case anyone forgot!


(but 12" not 10"as pictured)

I havent thought about it, could possibly put it under the passenger seat. Just found some components on ebay that look good though Not much room to stick it in the boot anyway, spare wheel well has a yellow top in it!

cool cool mate you know what ur getting for the fronts?
as for the amp, if the chrome one is fitted at an angle, then if you got a smallish amp (genesis etc) i think there will be abit of room underneath it mate Beats popping it under a seat - keep it out of the way etc etc

anyways looks good mate btw what is the amp?
