The hood is a aftermarket 3" Crowl and the fender vent are not in as don't really care for them. The car started out as a R/S but now everything on it is Z/28 all but no vents. Still a work in progress

Anyone who's interested, I love these Firehawk tires. I just took an exit at 80mph sideways, and I felt in control the entire time. I never got that comfort in my old one with Kumho Ecstas, even with just a 305.

And I just watched someone walk into a stop sign while staring at the car. Highlight of my day right there.

HAHAHA!!!! That's awesome! Yeah, Firehawks are awesome tires. I've always wanted a set ever since test driving a friends corvette with Firehawks on it. Driver confidence is really high with those tires.

Well I rolled 4k miles on the new drivetrain, and I smoked some guy in a BMW 323 who decided to flip me off while passing me on the highway.

A_Shirey hooked me up with some Rockford Fosgate 10" Punch series subs. 200W RMS/400W peak each. I'm amp shopping and looking for a sub box to fit the rear well, and I'm hoping to install them by spring.

Subs and boxes:

Massive 60oz magnets!
(5.56 NATO for size comparison)

Reeeaaaaaallllly easy to build one dude... I build a really good sounding one that held 2 10's for the back of the one that I had. Only thing that sucks is that the extra weight hanging rearward of the axle made the thing bottom out sometimes.

The box is being built to the specs in Post #26. It's a .PDF file.
