Next time, use body filler and spot putty to smooth em out. While they look a little rough, kick panels are not an "in your face" item. As long as they are rigid, should work

For the $800 that I'm going to spend on cells I could get a Taramps smart 3 and 4 12" CT Sounds 800 RMS Ozone subwoofer s. And it'll run on my current electrical, 250 alt and 100 ah AGM. Be ridiculously loud with just that in an 01 Sentra.
I've been a year without music and right now that's looking really good. I might have to save up and do the bigger system later. I can add a Dsp later on as well as electrical, and subwoofer upgrades.
Really looking like it's worth it just to have music.

Update:
Found DC Audio level 1 12s for $89 each. I have 4.
Found a Taramps Bass 1200 for $119.
My brother's sending me a Dayton DSP!
I'm getting so close to the finished product... Looking for a box builder and amps to power the mids and highs.

This is a good one for a chuckle. This was my original build before some of you awesome people talked sense into me.
My eternal thanks to you all. You were so patient with teaching me while talking me down from the ledge. I would've wasted so much money.
But thanks to you all, I learned and applied. Thank you. You all rock.
So I've done a lot of research and have learned a lot during this process but before I press the buy button I wanted to see if anyone can see anything wrong with this build.

2/0 run from front to rear around 17 - 20 ft (to prevent power loss during the transfer from front to back)
1/0 ground to engine block from alternator
1/0 ground to chassis for both batteries and amp each
Of course Ofc or nothing
300 amp fuses in the following places:
Alternator to battery
Battery to rear (5 inches from terminal)
Battery to rear (5 inches from rear AGM)
200 amp fuse from busbars to amp
Here's my mid/voice/highs or whatever build.
4 Power Acoustics NB4 1.5 in tweeters. Yeah I know, I never thought either but they sound fantastic.
Taramp's TS 400 X 4 at 4ohms, 60 watts per channel to match tweeters.
4 Rockford Fosgate Punch 6175 3 way coaxials.
Taramps 440 X 4 at 4 ohms, 69 watts per channel.
My thoughts are that the Fosgate coaxials will fill the mid bass and voice, leaving the Power Acoustics to overlap and fill in the highs. I know comps are the thing nowadays but I think these should serve the same purpose
I have a Clarion 7 band knob 1/2 din EQ so I can tune while in traffic on the fly.
I'm getting a DSP as well but I don't see a reason to pay like 800 for one 10 channel when Taramps 6 channel is 129. Even Dayton Audio has an 8 channel for 159. I'm just not familiar with the brand.
