At the moment I am thinking of getting a Response amp and and a 10" JBL or Response sub.

ZE is fine to boost it can be risky cause of the compression but if u do it right from the bat you will be ok

well, the aqua colour font was perfectly fine, its just that the rule is typing all capitals are considered shouting....thats all

we are actually very welcoming in the aus section. you should try introducing yourself in the main section with the americans, its either slightly welcoming or its like a baptism of fire lol. (hypothetically speaking - dont actually go and introduce yourself)

and i know how you feel craig, ive busted a thumb doing the same thing though it was completely self-caused lol

They are nice hard to choose

If you have a pic of ur car slightly sideways like the wheels i can PS the rims on so u know how they will look

If u only have a side view thats ok wont look asgood tho hehe

Thats it!

I'm not quite sure how to go about it yet. Fibreglass would be the way, but I have no idea how do use that stuff. I might just cut to shape a MDF pannel so it fits snug against the side of the boot and anchor it down somehow.

The main priority however is to do it all on the cheap.

yeah thats the prblm
those rims are the ones that most cosmo owners go for cos they look the best

how wide do the rims need to be in order to fit 265 or bigger tyres on? 8"? 8.5"? 9"?

265 is pretty damn wide. id say theyd fit nice on 8.5", but why not go as wide as you can and stretch
