i LOVE the way he used the copper tubing instead of wiring, as well as the actuator to motorize the amp to show its guts in the mirror. the speaker pod on the pillars is just sick. the attention to detail is jus

Wow ! that is a great idea , many many custom parts .. 
 
 
I really like the idea to keep off the brake dust .. I should look into making a black cover ;)

I hope they don't use real beryllium..haha, the dust can literally kill you..as in dead.

The fab work is awesome on the audio.  I've seen the copper tubing idea before to hide the wiring..works well for this install though.

nice gear...but i don't like how they placed the  tweets and the mid in the pillar...

^^ thinking the same

That's all sorts of sexy

I don't think it would make a good dust cover. It goes around the rotor.

tons of creativity and custom work, but not at all what i want in an install. props none the less.

i would think the copper tubing [I]is [/I]the wiring, not hiding it. otherwise stainless would have looked much better. doesn't make much sense to hide itty bitty strands of copper inside of a big ass tube of copper.

obviously a "function over form" sound quality install. that placment is becoming pretty common among sq competitors. every single install ive seen like that has been ugly.

Damn, I wanna hear how that sounds.

very nice custom install. Badass equipment too.

damn, thats a shitload of work.

im with you on that one, i can imagine how many hours went into this, but the component pods, the cd deck fiberglassed on the left side of the dash next to the steering wheel and the cf everything especially brakedust covers are pretty over the top for me. im sure it sounds great though with the placement n everything.
 his motorized trunk setup is mean, i wonder how those inverted subs sound.

clean work....

I agree on the mid and tweets being in an odd location.  Its too big and bulky to be there.  For one, its too close to the ears and two, it attracts too much attn i.e. thieves. :sad:

that looks tight

I agree the copper tubins was a clean idea. The vents made for the Amp were a nice touch. the onlything that would annoy me is having to remove once everytime I wanted to change my CD's. OVer all it's a very clean install...:biggthumpup:

I love his creativity & dedication to the build.
