Beautiful! Looks very very good indeed!

Looking at all the bling the Civic guy wanted (No spare wheel, puncture kit), I am sure he will not even drop a tissue in the boot - I guess Gunbir has not done anything regarding the protection because of the bling factor.

Interesting, but why white skin? Any kind of UV light there

Else matt black with some neon lights would look great, just my flavor...

Awesome work as usual. Maybe plexiglass to protect the woofers instead of the grille.

One comment on the visual effect (since the owner wants to show-off a bit): Dimensions of the fiber glass "frame" is probably very close to that of the install set below. This creates a visual problem as the thickness of this frame isnt considered AND because people see the setting from an angle. So it looks like the woofer drivers are getting cut by the frame. And that there is a gap above the woofers. See pic above.

The trick is to increase the gap at nearest area, and reduce the ones at the farther side. So visually it will look even (though from top, it might look a little odd, but that is a rare possibility, right?). Probably a sketch would explain it better, may be later as I am running off to a meeting.

This kind of skewing to make the angled view normal is done with many display units, the most common that we all can relate to is the sponsor's logotype spread on a cricket field.

True...its the angle from which the picture is clicked. At normal standing position and from average height its not a problem.

Nice looking install there. One question from my side. We removed the spare tyre to make way for the subs, but then where do we put the Suitcases?

^ There are no worries on that front - you have to sell off everything you own to get an ICE like this, so you don't need suitcases any more. :P

I'm sure that car doesn't go beyond the streets of Delhi. If he had to travel anymore, God save his seats.

The owner has other cars at his disposal for traveling, airport duty et al. This car is his daily drive city runabout. And who said there is no grill....
