+$200 for color matched
+$400 for carbon fiber

I'm not sure if you can get those through TRDSparks or only through oemaudioplus.com though.

The white would look sweet matching my Whiteout.

i'm sticking with the standard black. I prefer the stock look, plus i want it ASAP. I ordered some Damplifier Pro today that I plan on laying down while i've got the interior apart. (doors, floorboard, quarter panels, rear seats, trunk lid and floor.) I'm still considering adding some of their MLV for the floor to really cut down on road noise.

I got the standard as well. I like it better like that.

Is that meant to keep rattles out?

It does help with rattles, but i'm primarily putting it in to cut down on road/exhaust noise and improve sound quality. it's amazing how much a little strategically placed sound deadening can improve the sound of a stereo.

I will have to look into that.

I bit the bullet. I'll let you guys know my impressions once I get it and finish install.

I am about to go this route too. Let us know...

@D_LaBlanc, you have a PM. Something I forgot to ask in the PM is when will the Reference Series be available? I may want to hold off purchasing the 400+ system if I can just get the Reference Series sometime soon. Thanks!

I spoke to him earlier in the week and he indicated the full reference series would likely be available in the May/June timeframe. He also said the reference portion would be available first to current 400+ system owners for the difference in cost. Basically plug and play without reprogramming of the amp. I get the impression that if a reflash was deemed necessary they would take care of us. Customer service seems to be VERY good. If I am off on any info I apologize but your concern was the same as mine because I want the full reference series and he made me decide to pull the trigger now onthe 400+.

Hope that helps

There was a slight shipping delay due to the reprogramming of the DSP amp to match my non-OEM head unit. I had scheduled some vacation time at work and planned on installing/posting reviews of the system on Saturday. Hopefully they're able to expedite the shipping so that it still gets here in time without me wasting a vacation day.

Still stoked!
