Nice setup. I haven't heard anything about that company before. They seem legit though. U planning on installing yourself?

I'm gonna help...my buddy does a good job...only thing we won't be doing is if i got the money at the time is building a custom box...for now i may throw in an old box. I helped install my last system so i got the general concept, but my last system didnt have box things for the component speakers...i guess all you do is wire them up for the sound you want. I was gonna get the black kicker amps until i saw these...my celica is spectra mica blue but if this dont match the blue pieces come off...ill paint them with the same stuff i get for my dash to match.

I still need to decide on a head-unit, its a toss up but i think ill use my old one for now because i dont think i can squeek out another grand for a head unit (i want a dvd player type and maybe nav). Im trying to squeek in tint and i need new grill in my front bumper...its like torn loose.

EDIT: Forgot to ask....are the shallow subwoofers different sounding than the normal ones??...the shallow ones are only $10 more...figured if i got them it would give me more option when i do the custom trunk.

The shallows have much less excursion, so they will be a lot quieter than normal subs. Id get the normal-sized ones if at all possible.

As for MB Quart, theyre a very good brand of speaker, you wont be disappointed with them.

Think the 450Wx2 amp is overkill for the subwoofers??...trying to decide between that amp and a 650W mono channel amp (sam brand).

idk how your going to wire those subs up to that amp to get atleast 400 watts rms. those are dual 4 ohm subs. and im pretty sure if you wire them your either going to get a 1 ohm load or a 4 ohm load.. and the amp will only put out 450 watts per channel at 2 ohms. You need to get dual 2 ohm subs for that amp.. or a different amp.
