I basically just want:
replacement speakers (door and dash mounted speakers)
cheapish sub
cheap head unit (if necessary)
cheap amp
and any other supporting hardware needed....
If anyone can help me with this that would be great. Otherwise I am probably just going to go to some car audio shop and ask them for some help, but I've got a feeling that this option would end up costing me more money

They may be standard color blue but 8 out of ten of the head units now can be changed to over 1,000's of colors.
Everything under 500? Can not be done unless your going to do wal mart specials.
Do yourself a favor
SAVE YOUR MONEY AND DO NOT GO CHEAP
Speakers polk db's
Rockford fosgate punch stage 1 or 2 for sub
Head unit alpine 123, or use a LOC if you want to keep your stock unit "not recommended"
Rockford or kicker amp for sub
Kicker 8 gauge power wire and rca wires "there is a kit search kicker 8 gauge on amazon"
Sub box? you can spend 100+ on a z enclosure or go with a cheap truck box. You are still talking a good amount of money.
I added everything in a shopping cart as cheap as I could find it it all came to just about 700. That is without a box and install.
