Been reading this board for a while, finally registered because I saw this post. This install looks like it's going to be sick.

How long have you been working on this?

I'm trying to dig up pics of my RX7 install. Won a few shows with it, and feel it was worth my 3 months of work.

All glass enclosures, complete door panels and I did a center console as well. That one looks far out though, it's my favourite part of your install so far.

Been on it after hours mostly since January.
Sometimes a week or two goes by without getting much progress.
Door panels are the best part IMO. Tried em out in the showroom, and those 6's slam with the ports.
The ports are tuned to 60 Hz, and fire up and out into your lap and face in the car. Don't think I'll have a problem with up front bass. Have 280 watts per door, and get a good 5 or 6 dB gain from the ports at 65 Hz. Gonna hurt!
Derek (one of my techs) did the console. His first ever fibreglass project. Took a while and he learned a lot doing it, but it turned out nice.
Status display of all the components in the front of it, just under the deck.
An alien head he carved out covers the access holes for bolting it in.
Looking thru the trunk, between the buckets, it looks like one piece.
Only thing I hate, are the seams that have to run down between the subs and the centre cover. trying to get em straight and tight is gonna be a biotch, but they're coming.
Customer is giving me ***** for takin' too long, but at this point it's gotta be perfect.
Think I'll be workin some late nights for the next two weeks....good thing the beer store is across the road!. Wash down them boogers.

Nope....be kinda nice tho, but got out-voted and it's gonna be metallic Black to match the new exterior paint. The Alien head will be green, and green light under the window. All black interior, with some green light string, and black lights inside. A few other accents in green, like the shift boot,and ....well we'll see.
Maybe a bit of strobing LED type of effect in the trunk as well.
Big-a$$ Fusion stickers, and powerplant badges throughout of course.
