looking good mate. every little bit of detail counts. love the exhaust tips they look sweet.
Ok so I was sick of my shitty boot look so I decided to rebuild it and add some cheap sound proofing.
As you can see I added a step so the sub would sit on it nicely and behind that I got some mdf wood and mounted my to amps on to them.
The boot is half completed. When I get some more time im planing on boxing around the sub and installing 2 6inch speakers.
I have sound proofed the whole boot. It dosnt make to much difference but it was noticeable.

looks neat mate. good job. how is the bottom secured or is it a tight fit?
was planing on bolting it some how. but its a tight fit and i have had no problems with it so far so im prob just going to leave it
Pulled out the old
Rebuilt a new one

These clay bars are awesome. Anyone that wants a near perfect paintjob I suggest gets one of these. I always thought my paint was in excellent and clean condition.
I did half my bonnet and the clay bar was brown like rust.
My car now looks awesome and the paint feels like glass: D
Will post up photos of my car later today or later next week.
