Default Rockford Fosgate 350z @ CES (oh my gawd!)

Folks: The pix I took do not do this car justice. Not only BY FAR the best Z audio video install we'll ever see. Also BY FAR the best install at CES. Hats off to RF...the creator of the car lurks here on my350z.com. I'll let him "out" himself ;-)

Default Dash Pieces

Is the dash all hand crafted custom pieces? Who does this sort of work?

Interesting how they were able to put all of that equipment in and somehow keep it "stealth"...

Great pictures, but I would love to see what's going on from the back of the seats to the rear of the hatch.

Hey 350Boom... can you hook us up with some higher resolution pix? I would love to get a closer look at these. Thanks

now...i know that show cars should be wel..."showy"

/enter rant mode/

but yeah, I agree all that technical work is rendered completely useless by the god awful paint and general large layer of cheese attached to the whole car and project.

If in doubt...stick with one, maybe two colors.

As is even a worn out new jersey stripper would feel self consciou sitting, not even driving this poor, poor z.

I'm sure those responsible will be happliy left unnamed for the disservice to the Z DNA.

/end rant/

PIC #6 looks like they put a Flux Capacitor on the Z and turned it into a time travelling machine!! LOL

Sound system looks =

I understand its for "show" but i dont like the skittles color scheme.

At least you can figure out what you are looking at in that picture. I have stared at Picture #2 from every angle and still can't figure it out.

I think it may be a shot down into the sub behind the driver. I had the same "WTF?" reaction.

Looks like that's it (picture taken from drivers door looking across to passenger door). That really is an incredible amount of mods. I still can't figure out what that red piece of fiberglass does or what they did to the center console with the silver Z "kickplate"...I turned the picture 90 degrees to make sense out of it.
