Okay, but what is your dash going to look like when done? I doubt you'll get much custom bezel work for that price. Ask phantomzer0 how much time he spent modifying his trim for a double DIN installation.

^^ but memphis subz are a great choice...a lot of competitors use memphis subz...isn't there another guy other than phantomzer0 that did a how-to make a d2 bezel?

$150 for supplies..seems expensive but cool, it is going to take awhile, but the end result will hopefully come out looking pretty sick!! be sure to post pics of the process
