It's lowered, the roof was chopped, the rear was shortened then treated to custom wheels and custom green paint. Look...no door handles!

System Description

We installed an Alpine CDE-7822 head unit into the modified dashboard and mounted its RUE-4170 remote on the custom console. The speakers were mounted in stock locations in the doors with fully incognito grilles. The a/d/s/ PH15.2 amplifier was flush mounted along with the crossovers in the rear of the trunk. The a/d/s 642IX was mounted under the passenger seat. It is tuned and adjusted with constant bass all around with sub output going to the T82. The trunk facade was custom fabricated to match the existing trunk. A new power antenna was mounted on the rear fender.

The Clifford 700IQ was installed. The alarm's remote controls arm/disarm, door lock/unlock, parking light flash, trunk pop and door pop (to open the doors without the need for door handles.)

All work was done to Rich's Car Tunes' specifications.
