    Hey mate,
    you'll get a bit of a gain if you spin those subs aroud so they load/fire onto the bootlid.
    Nice looking car, good to see some more people with decent audio gear.
    Cheers.

    Nice car! Exactly like mine when I first got it.

    You need to remove the spoiler, trolley strip and mud flaps.

    Nice tint btw

    Looks 95% the same as mine when i got it haha.

    Question, who tint's the tailights? or is it DIY? mine are still bright red haha, doesn't go too well with the SS headlights and black 19's i have coming.
