Default i done fvcked up

redid the wires for my amp (power, ground, rca, speaker wires etc..)

from the angle i was i couldn't see the farther labels on the amp, but i could see the speaker ports. and i couldn't rotate the box (amp attatched to box) and in a B3 audi the trunk is quite a pita

i accidently put the power to the ground and ground to power and connected the fuse... (DOH)

is it fried? it don't work no more

Default I think you're right

When you try and force electricity the wrong way through modern equipment, you reverse the charges going through transistors (and everything else). The semiconductors are extremely picky about which way electricity flows through them, so if all the external fuses and fusible links are ok, you have literally nothing to lose by opening it. Start with a sniff-test- if you smell that burning equipment smell, you're probably toast.
