Ok I thought maybe it was done by someone who isn't used to dealing with audio. i can't tell from the pics but are your subs directly facing each other? because this is a no no. The reason is when the subs punch at the same time, those soundwaves meet in the middle of the trunk and they will cancel each other out slightly. Now if the subs are angled slightly in or out however, you won't have that problem. That being said, it still looks GORGEOUS.

Thats a very important part. If you can, you should mess with the angles a little untill you find the "sweet spot." You know, the spot where your subs make your kidneys vibrate.

That looks nice. I'm thinking about doing something like that in my car. What's supporting the amps? Or how did hang them like that?

thanks for all the comments guys...the amps are mounted to the amp rack..its a full rectangle rack that pressure fits against the bottom of the luggage rack, where the rear speakers are...eveything in the trunk is pressure fitted and molded to fit....nothing is bolted down at all...im truly impressed with how clean it came out..
