WOW what a jerk. What a way to dicourage someone. I've built 3 fiberglass boxes over the past few years & while I'm no pro either they turned out better than a square box & it didn't cost an arm & a leg to pay someone to do it. As far as far as air space goes I'm sure you can tell the exact volume of air in that box from those pictures. I mean it's obvious to us all that there is only .38 cubic feet of air space there . It's not easy to get airspace correct in a fiberglass box, but it can be done (personally I use packing peanuts to do it, but I'm sure there are other ways). It's not my style, but I think it turned out great for someone that doesn't do that for a living. The only thing that really maters is does it sound good?

Looks pretty good, especially for a DIY job. I would miss my trunk space though, even though I never put anything in there.

Thank you, and it sounds really good besides the fact that my back bumper sounds like it is going to fall off when it's turned up but other than that it sounds pretty good.

At least you know you can carry at least one dead body in your trunk.

Def an A for effort. Not many people would do a job like that themselves....unfortunatly it looks like a toaster and that kills it for me.

The pics are pretty crappy, but it looks like you should rotate it 180 degrees then slide it straight back so the amp faces outwards! Post some new pics please! Im sure everyone here would like to see them
