sweet. Where does the spare tire go now??

Turn on your flash too. That will get rid of the "blueish" hue and make your pictures look warmer

Very nice!!!
Did you have to cut or drill anything to fit everything under the cover?

Your engine compartment really gleams!!

Spare is in the trunk. There is a place for it there just like in the coupes. You just have to lift the carpet up and it slides right in.

As for drilling or cutting all I did was drill holes to mount things. You can actually see it in the pics. The sub box is mounted with those two brackets and the amp board has two or three screws in the front drilled into the red lip.
