Ideas on how to make this look better

Recently i just bought another amplifier for my rx7's stereo its a 200 watt 2 channel for the 2 6x9's but anyways i was wondering if any of you guys could think of an easy way to make it look cooler without resorting to fiberglass (im gonna post some pictures of my amp/cap setup as well)

Hide as much as you can in the storage bins, don't show of the distribution and cap, hide them. Even move the amp out of the way.

if you don't have a spare, use the spare wheel well. Coat it, and make sure you don't get any water leaks back there.

thats the good thing about the way my stereo is set up... the spare tire is still in there... its possible to still get to it if needed. Not trying to start some sort of battle of words here but why are you guys so keen on hiding audio equitment? I could see it if i needed the space in the back but i dont.... I can see you guys liking a clean stock look but I wanted to buy a stereo system that would be completely removable but at the same time eye-catching and appealing.

I like the clean look.....but also don't want people who can't mind their own space to start wondering how quickly they can yank all the crap out.......

You cannot have both! When you mount everything to your box, you can say bye bye to it. One quick yank and its all gone. You can hide your amp and cap (all of 10lbs max) in the storage bins. This will clean that up real nice. So all you have to do is pull the 30lb box out if thats what you want to do. Thus no undoing power cables and grounds, just speaker wires! As you see my amp is n a rack in front of the sub! All the wires are hidden under the cover, the cap is in the storage bin. I can remove the sub by taking out 4 screws, 10 minutes max.
