Why would you give yourself only 5 days? Why would you waste any time posting here?

I suggest you prioritize. What can you afford to not have done by next weekend? Save the lighting changes for last. It's an old style tweak and won't influence the judges. The exhaust is not going to be noticed. Good luck getting it all done. I hope it's more than just you.

It wont take much time... the A/V stuff will take the longest.
Other then that the right tweaking of suspension will be a possible crawl for the perfect hight. It has to be done in time for a show... its my demo at my dealership so I will be only driving it long enough to do a couple shows and wrap it up and toss in our show room. I come from having a xA so I am ready for something a lil more diff then 1st or 2nd gen ist stuff. I actualy am waiting on the rs x2b to drop to be my "real" car.

Scott, I'm only posting here because I love your style man, and I can't wait to see how this looks.

I'm working on bringing back the shadow xA :p

thanks bro... this will be lil less my normal style based on my time crunch. But so far I am pretty stoked on tonights progress.

for future ice guys... 2 19" tvs are probly not the best size to use. i suggest anything under that. the way they are in there are as planned, but if i went traditional i'd be screwed. I'll post pics tomorrow.

All I did tonight was place the box in and get the 2 19" TVs mounted.
Also installed the TRD Yaris suspension, and springs.
Wheels should be here tomorrow, but tires wont be here til tuesday

I guess I couldnt get the xD springs in time so I ended up with the Yaris option in the time crunch.
The speakers are above the box filling the entire back window with screens.
You can wait on the rims

I'm jealous. To have someone else's budget and car to customize would be cool. I have a lot of ideas but only ever one car to try them on. And spending the benjamins on the car is not my wife's idea of a good time.

I can sympathize with you wanting the x2b rs. I'm waiting for the xD RS. I hope they announce it soon so I know what I'll be buying.
