nope, it's the blue fogs and the thickness of the black barrier around the grille makes the "face" of the car have an oversized nose combined with the smiling lower grille the car looks like a clown. The protege pulls of the 2 tone black and other color look a little better than a Mazda6.

My truck was sponsored by kicker, I have had nothing but good luck with kicker. I cant say that much for anything else ive had, jl, alpine, orion, stroker, just to name a few. I was at 159 db with almost the same setup here, so i seems good to me! Wait till you see the hood.

because you say "wait till you see the hood" is that your Mazda6? You did a good job with it. I am sorry about the "clown" comment but maybe a thinner black barrier around the grille heading onto the hood would do it better IMO. It probably looks better hood down anyway. Also Tracker says that not because of what the sticker says, I just don't like stickers on cars.

If you notice, the 6 doesnt really have good body lines. I followed the lines that looked best. As far as the fogs, thier the ons that are for the erebuni bumper. To each his own tho right?

Im not tryin to be an ***, just trying to explain and open your mind a little. As far as stickers go, im not much on them either, but when you get stuff free ill advertise. Yup its mine. Actually the hood that is going on the car is still being made, i have some friends in the body bussiness and thier doing a one off to see what it looks like and if there is any interest in it.

hey new guy, whats up? never heard of stroker, but i love kicker ive been debating on weather or not i should stick that sub this guy has in his car in mine but im gonna have 3 of those in one box (ported or not is undecided) and as you can see that sub box is freaking huge and its just for one solo baric, but right now audio upgrades is at the bottom of my "what i want but cant afford" list

No I feel like the ***, I am sorry I feel bad about insulting your car. It does look good as an overal vehicle. Also I didn't welcome you to the site. so welcome and you have a nice Mazda6. The brake calipers look really good with the "6" incooporated like that and the engine bay looks really neat and organized too. It's much more than I have done to my car (none) soI respect that you modified your car need ot see fit for yourself.

Actually 3 wont fit in your car unless you take out the rear seat. The box i built is the smallest that you can use for a ported enclosure, 3 cu ft. Its the solox not the basic solobaric, thats why you need alot of space. You also need alot of power for them, if you under power them it will destroy the voice coil. Stroker is made by cerwin vega, about 6 years ago it was the only speaker that would handle 2000 watts, now thats nothin.

No hard feelings, you didnt insult me, just giving ur opinion. Everyone has one. There are some things i have done to see if people like them so i know to give my guys a good report to make them or not. As far as the junk on the floor, i havnt had time to clean it yet, had some problems with my foot so ive been "tied up".

oh its you, i didnt actually think you would show up on here, well anyway glad to have you aboard. The box i was going for was gonna be a universal box for three 10in L5 Solo baric, obvioulsy one box for those subs is almost as big as three, i know the subs require alot of power , thats already been out into the equasion, but i more worried about the sound qualily of the subs not only conserning the ported vs. unported but since the sub is in a box thats way to small for it.
