my mini (pics!!!)

hello everyone, this it the first opportunity i had to take oictures of my mini. i have blacked out head light/tail light rings,black grille surround, black side shuttles, black gas cap ,and black window trim the hood scoop and boot handle are aslo black. i did limo tint for the windows and got red brake calipers. the inside is pretty average. i put alpine type r door speakers and type r 6x9's in the back with a type r 10" sub all powered by 2 alpine amps and i used the alpine PXE-H660 imprint system so i would have to put a HU in. i bulit my own coustom sub box, the wiring was a b***h.

you have to post the pics on a photo hosting site like photobucket or something, then link them here.

Welcome; however you need to host your images to an online provider like Flickr, Photobucket, or something similar.
You cannot hyperlink images from your personal computer.

How did the imprint work out for you? Did it give you full range sound over all five channels (front, rear, sub)? I just did Type S components up front, Type S 6x9's in the rear and a Type R 8" sub and I am having a few little issues. I was thinking about getting the same PXE-H660 processor for my set up.

@nealuss the H660 i very nice when it is set up.( i put mine undr the passenger seat to get it out of the way) but the easy setup manual is B.S. you need to go on the imprint and manualy set the gains for each channel. Once this is done then you can use the remote provided by alpine or just use the standard HU controls.
If you listen to songs with alot of bass then dont turn it up all the way. Ihad type s speakers and i blew the 6x9's so i got better quality ones.

I hope this helps,
Daniel

Aesthetic Creations has black covers for the door handles. They pop on in about 2 seconds each. They fit and look great. If you want them check availability first, A.C. can be really slow with delivery.
