'98 Audi A4 2.8 Install

Quattro · 11-05-2005, 12:35 AM

Hey guys, So finally after fiddling around for over a year

I'm almost finished with my install.
It took long time but it was worth the wait.

This was my first time working with bondo or fiberglass. I had never attempted anything like this before. My previous car only had upgrade rear speakers because the stock ones poped. but this was my first attempt at a complete install so I think I did pretty good for a first attempt.
What ya'll think?

Specs:
Asus A7N8X-VM
AMD Mobile Athlon 2400 35w
512mb 333DDR Ram
Lilliput 7" Touchscreen
Maxtor 60GB
Opus 150w
Rikaline 6010
Custom Sub Enclosure
12" Alpine Type R Subs
Hifonics amps, 1 - 4 Channel and 1 D Class Amp

Future Plans:
Finish Grill for Sub Enclosure
Intergrate Mic for voice controls
Add Bluetooth phone
Other ideas I come up with later.

Wow Quattro, that's just absolutly beatiful!

Looks like it's always been there!

Have you got the chance to put those CCFLS in the sub box yet? What about the cover?

ACHIEVER · 11-05-2005, 10:48 AM

Wow that screen install is fantastic! It looks completely factory and stock, which is the look I prefer too. The trunk looks great too, I don't have the patience for something that is so rarely seen by anyone else.

Great job.

Thanks and yes, I fabricated the sub box myself. What a pain in the *** that was. It took the longest to finish, but it was well worth it. I came out really good, since I had never worked with fiberglass before.

Thanks for the comments guys really appreciate it.

Nope, never got a chance/time to put in the CCFLS, I know this like a 10 min job but no time at all. That being said, I don't have any time for completeing the grill for the subs either.
