Sonic007 build thread

Got some Infinity components. Gonna run the crossover outside the door to make it look nice here soon. Mounted the tweeter next to the handle for better sound.

So what's in the speaker pod on the a pillar?

 

[sonic007]

The factory tweeter still. Didnt have enough time to remove it. Actually sounds really good with them in. I may just leave them lol. Im gonna be doing a 4 channel power pack here soon. And replacing the rear speakers. I was looking into the kicker hideaway setup for under my seat. Still debating though.

 

[joe332]

How would the hideaway work? or how does that setup work if you dont mind me asking?

 

[sonic007]

Its just a small box that has the amp and sub built into it. The wiring is just a harness that plugs in. You have your battery wire, ground, remote and 4 speaker leads that get your signal.

Just picked up 4 factory 17s for 197 bucks shipped. Scorreeeeeee. Have to pick up some tires once they come in.

The Spacers turned out great man, do you feel you get the look you thought they would for the price?? That is the dilemma I am in as I don't want to buy new wheels but I also don't want to spend the $$$ on spacers if the desired effect isn't achieved.

Is it noticeably more flush and do you feel like the car is a little more stable at speed with the wider stance??

 

[sonic007]

Its suprisingly more stable. The car wants to drive straight now. I can definitly tell a difference. I have the oem 17s comin. They will be here friday. Hopefully they will look just as good. I may paint them and my headlight rings orange for some color

 

[SouthFLSonic]

You talking about dipping it or actually painting?? I like the orange dip and I think even that purple they have or the Blaze blue would look great on the wheels and rings.

Just some examples to get the creativity flowing.

 

[sonic007]

Yea i was thinking about purple to be different. Def gonna dip forsure incase i dont like it. Ill have to do some photoshoping lol

 

[SouthFLSonic]

I would go with that purple personally, it would look great with the dark gray color you have. I even put some thought to it for my car before I decided on the black since everyone has been doing black, next I think I am dipping the roof black.

Either way with the spacers and 17" the cars going to look great no matter the wheel color.

 

[sonic007]

Very true. Theres a sonic intown thats completely dipped in black with black a purple wheels and purple rings. Looks sweet.
