Default Ball park custom installation price?

At some point in the near future I'm gonna be looking at sorting out the
boot install of my '99 Celica VVTi. All the wiring and everything will be
done (i can run all that myself) it's just the actual fabrication of the
install that I may need to get someone to do.

I want something impressive.. not just neat and tidy, but something I can
pop open and show off a bit.

Here's the equipment that will need housing...

2x 10" Audiobahn AW101T Subwoofers (mounted magnet out so the chromed flamey
chassis is showing).

2x Amps, probably Kenwood PS series ones so I can control them directly from
my HU. One 4 channel for fronts/rears and one monoblock for the subs.

1x Mini ITX computer motherboard (17x17cm) and DVD-ROM drive to be on show
somehow... I have an incar pc setup so it'd be nice to have that being shown
off a bit. The power supply, inverter, hard disc etc can be hidden
somewhere.


So the question is, what sort of ballpark figure should I be expecting to
get someone to knock up a show quality install for all this stuff. I want
something that's gonna be impressive, involving fibreglass or motorisation
or something. My ideas are pretty vague at the moment... am I best to have a
design worked out before I take it somewhere or is it common to ask them to
use their imagination?

Buying boot installs for dummies then

Thanks for any reply
