Parting shots .. warning .. lots of pics

Here a few PG projects I've done over the years. Figured you guys might enjoy them.
A 350Z that was way nicer then the owner deserved. Turned out it was mommies car and she took the car from him and sold it before making final payments. Still owed me like $1200.00. Found it about 9 months later at a used car dealer. I almost bought it. He had no idea there was like 25k in aftermarket upgrades to it.
Here's an Accord that turned out pretty clean. The guy had a hodgepodge of gear but at least used PG processing. He competed for a short time but managed to win Spring Break for his first show ever.
Here's an EXTREME A4. 2 Ti Elites with 2 T1200.1's strapped to each! This was one of those '10lbs of shit in a 5lb bag' jobs! Things were that tight I couldn't fit the end caps on the Tantrum amps. So I kinda made my own.
Here's a 98 Grand Am that managed to win a few trophies.
Here's a Civic Si that I regret I never managed to get real good pics of before it went away. Still one of my personal favorites.
Here's a Grand Prix that was made famous when his T1200.1 went down in the middle of SQ judging at a big show. The rules gave us a 5 minute 'tear down' to fix the problem. Instantly I sprinted back to the hotel room, got the 'spare' 1200, sprinted back to the show where the judge was laughing at me because I was gone before he could remind me that we couldn't 'replace' anything, only 'fix' what was already in the car. I almost passed out! I literally was white as a ghost and had to lie down. That running shit for a smoker doesn't work! By this point there was a crowd of people around to see what all the hubbub was about. Luckily the judge gave us a break and waited till I came around before starting his 5min stopwatch for the teardown. We managed to pull the 1200 out of line, reconfigure the amp channels and make gain adjustments within the 5mins. A huge roar of applause came from the crowd when the judged waved 'times up' and we actually finished it. Most guys couldn't get to their amp wiring within the 5mins, let alone rewire and make adjustments. He still managed to take 2nd place too.
Speaking of Grand Prix's .. Here's my old car. I competed with this from 98 - 01. Still THE best sounding car I've ever done. '98" IASCA World Finals and beat a PG car in my class built by Jerry D. at PG (should've been an Expert class!..f-ing cheaters) and was awarded the highest SQ scores from the entire show!
Here's a system that out-classes the car .. Dodge Neon. Another one of my favorites that I never got better pics of.
And yet another green Neon .. I was sick of green Neons after this one!
Here's a Sable we did 'stealth' style.
Here's some misc one's that were just simple yet different.
More to come.
