Default Bhirst Audio Build, iPad and a DD2508

I just bought a 2005 350z in January and it was lacking a nice sounding stereo system. So I came up with a plan and just finished it yesterday.

Equipment:
iPad install for head unit
DD CS6.5 components for the front
DD 2508 (This 8" is huge...)
JBL GTO1201.1 rated at 1114 rms
Rockford Fosgate R300.4 rated at 300 rms
And upgraded the battery to a Optima Yellow top

For the finishes I used 3m scotchprint 1080 black carbon vinyl wrap. (This stuff looks awesome in person)

So on with the pictures... (Sorry about the cell phone pictures)

















The amp rack for the R300.4 I don't have any finished pictures of it at the moment. Its still currently unwrapped but will be wrapping it in trunk liner this week.

It is very easy to remove. It just slides out. It's basically just a docking station
