Are these any good?

Here's a Diamond Audio coax (is this a good one):

I am so excited about these two fairly major mods to my car, it is causing me sleepless nights!!

I am placing my order today for the StopTech and I will make sure I specify that I want the Axxis Metal Masters. Thanks guys!!!
All the links show 6x9 coax's. You can't use 6x9, you have find 6.5 coax's to fit in the rear door. Let me talk to my guy here locally and find out how much I can get them for you for and I'll pm you back. I can get them cheaper thru him (he's my sponsor) than thru ebay.

I'll let you know.

That is exactly what I have, right down to the sticker.

Hameed, see what I was talking about....it stands out enough to be noticed, not too loud, but it also lets your HRE's shine thru. IMO, it's a good balance for the color of your car and the type of wheels you're gonna put them on. A little edgy, but still classy.

Thanks. Looking forward to your PM.

Please also find out what your price would be on the DynAudio 240 GT's are. They sell for $470.00 on ebay. If your contact can do a better price, I will go with him instead, including all the wiring I need.

Hello GS Pilots!

Why isn't there "Gold" in the choices?

Look at this thread,
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...hreadid=105782
and check the "Caliper Collections", please!

But, to tell the truth, I like Polished Metallic Silver.
