Whats your other plans?
Dont go for the full carbon wrap
Would be different, but I dont think you should...
i like to keep my options open, but i never planned on wrapping the full car i think it would be abit much ...... i dont want to give too much away, but im looking forward to converting to a double din

can see what your saying about making it something its not but you would be doing that buying 180 seats lol, i had to drive to brighton to get my 180 seats was worth the drive though just need to get the drivers seat fixed.
how long untill the cars done then

rear 180 bench test fitted and they are super clean and soft
center console gloss painted
il be giving a real update tomorrow since im gonna be doing something nobody has done as far as i can see anyways .... including these little beauties .. where are they going to fit i hear you say ????
iv lazer cut some metal rings to trim off the speakers n there going red should really set them off
#59: Re: 1.4 lx (FRONT END SPORTS CONVERSION AND HALOS) Author: BioCustoms, Location: LeedsPosted: Fri Apr 27, 2012 4:03 pm ---- right, the update im really looking forward to hearing your comments on this ....
i purchesed these 4" pioneers and they sound great hitting 180w each
started up by knocking a small enclosure together by recycling this fibreglass box i knocked up a while back
i stud welded 4 25mm threads on the back to trim off the speakers and routed 2 mdf rings when all together looks like this..
i then gor the rings powder coated and painted the silver domes black...
iv also trimmed the rings in carpet looks really neat
the inside edge of the box has been routed to create a ledge for a plexi glass window to fit..
carpeted the inside and drilled pre holes for dowles, screws now counter sunk n all flush..
speakers are now in the enclosure they look like there floating
and this little bad boy is going in the middleof the rear seat you can faintly see the quied lines on the seat..
few minor un-forseen things such as this seat support in the way im having to grind it of and re-position it
update tomorrow
