Need opinion on which to buy....

Alright, I have roughly $410 set aside for my tight-*** P5! Now should I buy a whole new Audio system for my car or save up a little more and get the Precision Designs upper & lower Billet Grill? When I say Audio System, I mean all new door speakers (4), 2 x 10" Kicker Comp VR's, Kicker Amp, Tweeters, Head Unit (maybe even a CD/DVD Unit!) and all the works that come with it. I can always get the hook-up on audio **** for cheap, but not the Billet grill. So what do you guys think i should go ahead and get this Saturday?

I'd do the system too.

But I don't know how far you'll get on $410. The setup you listed oughtta run you about 3 times that, if not more.

well you say you can always get that hookup on audio
so if you can always get a good price on the audio...like same price nex time....then you can wait if you want

personally I would get the audio

but if theres a limited time offer on the grill that you can get...and the regular is really really expensive compared to what you can get off...then go for the grill....

its up to you...do you wanna make your car look better...or sound better

Yeah, i can always get a hook-up on Audio items, like the 2 10" Kickers i can get for $50 and another $15 for the box. Also the 2- 6x8, and the 2- 61/2 for probably another $50. If I go for the 600 watt Kicker amp, ill probably pay $100. If I want the Kenwood CD/DVD, ill most likely pay $250 for that. Since im buying all these things together ill probably offer them $420 instead of $465. If anyone needs a deal like this let me know, Ill see what i can do. Anywayz, the Billet grill is kind of pricey, but it looks freakin' bad-***!! If i just send the money and not think twice it'll be OK. Im leaning toward the system, cause my P5 needs it bad. But I dont need the extra weight from the speakers, because someone is always tryin to race me at like every block! I dont know, ill let you guys know what i decide to get this weekend. Thanks for the opinions, i appreciate it.

Whatever you go with, just make sure you take pictures.

A Kenwood DVD player for $250? What model? What's the retail on that?

I didn't think these were even CLOSE to that cheap yet.

There not, im guessing there around $800 or more. Im able to get really good deals at the place I go to. If I decide to get the system ill tell you what model I got If I get the Kenwood....Maybe even the Pioneer but that one is more expensive...Peace!
