My trunk IS VERY small but yeah the case is kinda big too, its an Asus Pundit and it comes with the motherboard.

It's cool, you'd be suprised how many takes I did to try and make some vynl I installed look good/right. With the flash it was too glossy, without it it looked like crap... Good thing I have a digi-cam. It'd have been a week before I got a decent pic rather than 10 mins.

Model No Pundit AB-P2600
Dimensions 91(w) x 357(d) x 275(h) mm ~10.8"x14"x3.6" Wow... yeah, your trunk is really small. That case in your turnk looked as big as my spare ATX tower that I have.

I'm looking into making my own case that will house a Micro ATX mobo and psu. Hoping to get it down to ~10" x ~10" x ~2.5" I'm looking at a fairly bare bones carputer in the size of a small pizza box. How much did that barebones cost you? Any issues with cooling/airflow?

You should have just turned the flash off first if it flashed. You might have got more battry then too.

I think I would have to see it to apprecheate it. I don't like the CF I think it looks tacky in all cars. But if you like it thats cool,
You should cover your whole car in that CF including your rims :-D that would be a **** taker to all ricers.

How does your antenna work for you? I should be getting mine in the mail soon! woo hoo

I need to find my pics of an all CF Acura NSX and the all CF Porsche GT3 The porsche had a sign on it that said... "this shell only weighs 200kgs" or something like that. ~440 lbs for a whole body... that's wicked cool.

200kg - there are people out there that weight more than that!
Weight-saving rules! Whilst I do like a bit of Detroit iron, there's more satisfaction to be gained from the less-is-more approach!

That's just the frame though. Not total car weight. I also think CF looks tacky when used as a "decoration". I like the car though

I personally think carbon fiber can look good in a vehicle as decoration, however what i was saying about the screen mount that the shape of it is what is screwy. Not the fact that it is carbon fibre (although it looks like people dislike carbon fiber or maybe it is that they dislike your carbon fiber)

All in all a great install.

darkhalo, great install. I'm new to this but I have to admit you've done a great job A Honda S2000 has an interior that isn't suitable for any kind of material or drastic install...but you've done a superb work Muy bien
