......well kinda.
My car is f****d to look at. Scratches too deep to cover, dents on the roof from c***s jumping on it, rust, an off colour bonnet, flakey paint blah blah blah. Last year I was willing to throw money at the car to improve the look but now the look of it has gone so there's no point.
So my thinking is, use the car as a kind of test car for different ideas. So was going to play about with the ICE mainly but I can't really think of many other things to do. I would like it to be something that I am learning as I am doing.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jordan

So your unhappy with the car... But instead of addressing the problems you want to fill it with speakers? Use your money to get the car straight, then start thinking about other things.

Why not just save the money that you would spend putting a load of speakers and amps in then ebay the car and then you will have enough to buy an alright one. Plus everyone wont laugh as you drive round blaring music out! Result!

This site does that to me, I see all the amazing looking cars on here, and then look at mine.
I'm happy with mine, cause I've done it the way I like it, It's all pretty standard, but the paintwork is pretty nasty.
But I still love Montgomery =) He's my baby.
