Two questions... the key doesn't look like mine, is that for an '07? What paint did you use for the interior pieces?

Looks good.

so0o0o im finally almost complete w/ my system setup, all i need now is components (saving up). this is my setup as of now: Pioneer Premier DEH-680MP headunit, JL 500/1 to TWO JL 10w3v3-4 in a sealed enclosure, JL 300/4 to stock speakers (for now). So what do you guys think? I'm working on tweaking and what not, one of my subs has a clipping sound/popping at high volumes, not sure exactly how to fix it completely but ive minimized it drastically. also, the wiring is going to be cleaned up, trust me... but i had to make sure everything worked before spending over an hour to clean it up nicely... the box is built by me and my buddy and wrapped in a micro suede style material. anyways, input welcome!
