Well, I finally got the install complete and I am now saving to complete the bottom portion by adding an 8" LCD monitor were the factory HU is. As of right now the factory HU is dead space but I think that the overall look is great. When the LCD is added in fiberglass it will have a real clean look. I wil post more pics soon. Please excuse the dirtyness of the car but the weather has been so bad around Pittsburgh lately that I havn't been able to clean it.

Since I do free-lance graphic design I was able to trade services to get this done. I designed a logo and brochure for the shop and in return they did the fiberglass work, painted my Kicker amp shrouds to match, new Alpine headunit They also hooked up my interior neons and ran all the wiring back to the hatch. The wiring/neons was just bonus work since they know that I hook up all my own equipment. They figured while they were fitting everything that they could knock out that part for me for no charge. Pretty cool of them. They always hook me up. They are good people and they do great work.

Here are the pics:

WOW. That's the best I've seen so far. Very nice. Do you have any other pictures of the rest of your audo setup? definately put the nav where the stock HU currently is. Great job!
 
easily the best i've seen so far....

what are the switches for?

the far left switch controls the interior neons which are located under the right and left of the dash, there are three in the back(one on each side under the small windows and one led roof mounted in the center)

The other switches are for under car neons which are not on yet, strobe lighting that will accompany the system after I get it custom installed into the trunk, and one switch will probally be for the LCD screen that is getting installed soon.
 
although, i'm not a big fan of the neon stuff, i'm still speechless, and very, very jealous.
 
Splitvizion, insane stuff. I really like the positioning, do the steering wheel mounted stereo controls still work?
 
Great job, best install I have seen.

One suggestion though, the background of the switches, might look good in carbon fiber design like the surrounding.
 
Beautiful install!!

And by the far is the best that i've seen!!!

Love ur work...

Just some advice... might wanna think about painting the carbon fibre strip the same colour as the black on ur fibreglass....
 
Thats one of the best install jobs Ive seen.. Look forward to some more Pics... any advice on a top mounted flip down screen (brands and such) Im looking at a Audiovox
 
Here is a cupple photoshops of what I was thinking.

They are not that great, did them quick.
