it looks like you're going all out... don't get 3 way speakers-- get true components. You won't regret it!
1GR-FE ftw!

you may have trouble with the alpine center channel, its a single din openeing and i know for a fact that in the lower pocket on the dash, it cant fit. plus if you look dead on, its tapered. meaning that to make it fit there is gonna take some work and cutting.
and components will sound lots better than a three way.
Alpine + Dynaudio = Sonic bliss.

IMO i'd skip on the kenwood headunits and nav unit and get an all in one unit like the Pioneer Avic n1 or the Eclipse AVN2454. Both can be had for around 1500 bucks. For the Eclipse I know where to get them for 1600.00

I would definitely look into a set of components as compared to a three way speaker. I'd rec. instead of buying the 4 kappa speakers and the center channel speakers to use that same money on a set of high end component speakers for the fronts. IF you also want rear fill then get a 2 way kappa for the rear.

Theres also alot better amps then Rockford fosgate for the money, and just plain stay away from audiobahn stuff if you are serious about car stereo stuff.

What's your budget for everything and if you like I'll try to point you in the right direction.
