Well, everyone said the gas tank is a ugly hunk of junk in the back. But when I hooked in the neons today I must admit. It makes the tank look crazy! (in the boot)

and yet, the only time you see the tank is when you open the boot. and with the subs in front of it, you baerly see it anyway. waste of time and money imo. but if i was to go neons, i think a softer colour would definitly look better, the green is too harsh.
just my thoughts....so what ever rocks your boat i guess

an LPG tank could look good polished, with body colour for the valve casings........

a LPG tank doesnt look good covered in the light from a neon in the boot....:S

if you are really worried about the tank, get a stainless steel tank. they are light wieght, look great when polished, and look "sexy" as.

*slaps* jones_aus

(You had that coming mate! I was honoured to give the first blow...)

I have actually been thinking about getting a large mdf board and covering it. Then placing another sub in the mdf along with 2 6x9's.

What can I say, I love my sound.
