the amps are 2 x v power 2 CHANNEL amps(MRP-T220)(which is 90 watts max,so if ya think bout it its like 45 watts to each speaker) and the sub amp is a 700 watt mono amp(that is seen through the rest in the back seat)
i want to do the boot lid interior(like soudproof it and make it look nice) is it worth it?or just chuck a strobe or a neon in the boot and leave it as it is?im doin it up for the car show and its a few more weeks away and i only got a bit of money left to do stuff to my car,another mate of mine recomended up gradeing my headunit like to one of thouse headunits that got more bass control and like flip down and look cool and stuff,i tink its a model up from wat i got atm which is a cd/mp3 alpine headunit (CDE-9846E)
im realy stuck on wat i should do,the otha thing i was gona to do my car was the door trim interior for my car(bout 400 bucks i got quoted),wat does every1 rekon?too make things easier ive got like another 700 bucks to do sometin to my car,and im realy stuck wat would impress ppl more?

Does the checkerplate stuff make noise when it vibrates? Or is it just that vinyl stuffs..

Maybe keeping in theme.. get some of that vinyl checkerplate stuff and line the boot lid..

haha its the real stuff lady:)
na it doesnt vibrate cos like each plate is screwed on,the only thing that vibrates is my number plate on the outside of the car

yeah i quoted how much it costs me its about 300 bucks,i could get black carpet as seen in my boot set up behind the checker plateing and get another checkered plateing set up in the middle of the boot lid ,then sound proof stuff behind it and then i was thinkin chuck a big neon strobe light along the top,would look prime,but i just wanted to know from otha ppl when they look at some1s boot install do they look at the subs or the whole set up?cos im entering it in the car show where im from i want it to look good,but wanted to know is it realy worth doing the boot lid?

You need to cover the boot lid with something.. checkerplate would draw attention, and thats what you really want to do..

Alot of people just get the verada boot carpet which looks neat so thats another option...
