I got a 2011 Dodge Chally. Motor size V6 3.6L VVT series. I did this on purpose for this car is a daily driver from work and back, wanted a muscle looking car that doesn't soak up a lot of gas. We're talking a 60mile trip from work to home 6-7 days a week. Decent gas mileage for a sports car. At the moment I'm getting 22-24 mph highway/city. Well enough of that. Let's get to the pictures!

This is what the plan is for this car:

Install a secondary car alarm
Install a remote starter
Install blue HID headlights
Reconstuct the gauge dash with blue tabs and white background w/ built in voltmeter
Purchase Interactive signal Processor *Check*
Purchase AudioTechnix 1/0 gauge power wire *Check*
Purchase AudioTechnix rca cables
Purchase AudioTechnix Deadener
Purchase AudioTechnix Fuses
Purchase AudioTechnix 12 gauge and 16 gauge speaker wire *Check*
Purchase some decent midranges and highs (No preferences)
Paint calipers white
Install white neon underglow bodykit
Build a new box w/ the port firing though the stock 8" sub in the rear deck
Purchase 2 Sundown E8-v.3 D2 subs *Check*
Purchase 2 XP750 batteries *Check*

I also may get the face plate around the radio and shifter hydro dipped blue with black swirls.
Blue LED will be added to the Hood blowers.

Sundown E8v3 subs. They're really small..but quite beefy. May upgrade down the road if these subs don't satisfy my thirst for bass.

But here's what the box will sort of look like. I didn't put 100% of my time into it.
The back is a fake wall approx 4" long. It will have a .25" pexiglass over it, there will be small computer fans blowing into the casing to keep the amps cool. As well as two fans blowing air out of it. (I have a bunch of blue led fans laying around...might as well put some use to em, blue LED will go around the edge of the inside lighting up the amps.

Everything is design to fit perfectly in my trunk..leaving me enough room to access the spare tire and battery. It will also be completely sealed off because of this.
The port will be going through the factory 8" sub.

Thank you! :)

Well I'm looking for Sundown amps. I have a serious OCD of matching all my equipment. But I plan on putting a Sundown Sundown SAZ-1500Dv2...if I can find one for a good price...if not I may stick with Sundown SAX-1200D or Sundown SAE-1000Dv2. I am also going to be looking for a SAX100.4D for the mids and highs.

Beautiful car!! I like the stripe. I'm driving an SRT4 caliber. Pretty fun, fast and decent fuel. Watch those hid headlights. They can melt the head lamp housing.. And remote start I thought I saw you posted, I'd strongly recommend factory. No wire cutting, fail rate is very low. Just seen a lot of after market remote starts just junk!
