hey there guys, just picked up my 04 G coupe MT in mid december. it has everything minus navi. i have a couple questions for you guys. i plan on adding 2 10" subs in the trunk and i was wondering if it being hooked up to the stock bose system will be a good idea or should i change it out?

i also plan on puttin my sirius radio sportster in the car. i know i can have it hooked up into the stock player, but i dont like the idea of losing alot of the options the sportster comes with if i do that. so does anyone have any pics where they mounted their sportster?

and lastly ill also be having my mp3 player installed. that will also be hooked up with the converter into the bose player, i was wondering how that will sound with the system since it technically will be playing through a radio station.

im also debating rims. i love the 18"s but i like the look of 20's with a deep bowl. is there a good site that will sell rims like that, that will fit over the brembos?

thanx guys, look forward to being a member on here, i came from a WRX and recently a rock crawling wrangler, and both of those communities were great.

 

check out site sponsors for wheels but be ready to spend a pretty penny for nice ones

f1 status wheelautohaus worldone etc.

btw, welcome

 

i was also wondering, if i jump to 20" wheels, will it need to be lowered? i wanna stay away from lowering it.

 

u can hook the subs up to the stock system but imo id get an aftermarket deck since the bose deck is a POS. all depends on what u wanna spend. as far as wheels like aHero said check out thye site sponsers. welcome to the forum...ull find out all u need to know and more on here

 

u dont need to lower it but i think wheel gap looks ugly so if i was i would but thats ur choice. use the search function since there is all kinds of info on wheels and lowering and all that stuff

 

i was contemplating an aftermarket unit, or possibly a tv/dvd player......does someone make a center piece that will accomodate a aftermarket cdplayer or tv? i see you cant use the stock one

 

with any wheels youll need to get lowered for it to look right. hell, you should lower it if you plan on stock wheels.

the perfect drop makes the biggest difference along with the right wheel.

a nice body kit and nice wheels will look like **** if youre not dropped.

my two cents.

 

i really dont plan on modding it other then audio and possibly wheels. i did enough modding to my wrx and my wrangler......time to just enjoy a nice looking car that is stock

 

i do feel though if u get wheels and dont lower the car it just wont look right. lowering it is a simple mod that worth every penny. might as well spend the extra few hundred bux to lower it and make it look right if u r already gonna spend 3g's on nice wheels

 

^^exactly

why get nice wheels without a drop and sacrafice the good looks that the wheels could potentially give you car?

defeats the purpose of wheels imo lol

you can have your car dropped with springs and a rear camber kit installed for 500 bucks out the door
