Default Building a BMW M3 system

Ok guys, I have some free time this week, so I am building my friends system.

It is going into a 2004 BMW M3 Alpine white with red leather.
Options include, well, everything....navigation and all.

Install list....

Infinity Kappa Perfects 5.1's (2 pairs)
JL Audio W7 10" (2 of them) ---Hey, not my car remember!
Soundstream Tarantula 1600/2 for the subs
Soundstream Tarantula 500/4 for the highs.

All labor will be done by yours truly, and will post pics as soon as possible.

Im using this system to dethrone my man John with his crazy crossover covers.

Wish me luck!

My friend got the two biggest ones they make, the 1600, which is as wide as the trunk, (not exaggerating) and the 500.4, which is a few inches shorter. I dont know how I am going to do all this....Ever see the trunk of an m3? Imagine an s2k trunk, plus where we keep our spare/gas lines...that area. And hes got a 4 foot wide amp, two amps that are 3.5 feet in height, 2 W7s, what the hell did I get myself into.....

I shall prevail!!!

May the best man win!
