sound systemmmmm!

A mates got a 2 big bang 15's in his, the 2010 2400 watt items and a VX6002 powering them along with all the usual shiz and its umm.... LOUD! its not the best at keeping up with quick bass tones mind, more a deep slow bass setup! certainly does that very well though!

my system is two 1200 watt jbls good alrounders pick up high and low tones make my ears numb though lol

this picture is very upsetting as its the damage the missus did when she reversed to close to a sign. its gonna cost 185 to get it sorted as focus st electric orange is a three stage pearlescent paint. this is gay as chuff

post-64729-1326625266_thumb.jpg

personally i think it would look better with textured bumpers as oppose to the painted, and it will be cheaper..

nice car though, love the colour

I remember this car when it was Tornado red and the previous owner was just sticking that GT lump in it!

Nice colour, clearly alot of time and money went into respraying it that extensively.

Quite a rare 'un! Like the colour, might have stuck with the orange indi lenses though. And ditch the eyebrow.

More pics of the whole thing please :-)
