my sub box

[Royal Flush]

They also have those Down Firing subwoofer boxes that a friend of mine has, the floor doesn't really SHAKE but the whole car does.

I face the Bass port towards my side, so it depends on where the port it (little hole from the box)

 

I wish I had a 60 inch sub lol. No need for Turbo

You got skilz. Couple of questions... How did or do you get something like that smoothed enough to paint gloss black and not show every little uneven spot? I think it looks great kinda reminds me of that RX7 in the first fast and furious movie

heres how it was done. after you are done fiberglassing you want to sand with either 60,-80 grit sandpaper, until it is a little smoother, then to what I understand you apply body filler to the low spots, and sand that down, then use a higher grit sandpaper to get the scratches out, then you wet sand (optional) with 800 grtit, then prime, and paint.

 

 

I've been researching this online for quite sometime now, and I am starting my own sub box.

Pretty much the same as auto body work.

[zmaster]

yeah pretty much, but i guess you have to put about 7 -10 layers of fiberglass down, to make it strong.

And watch for bubbles and areas that didnt get soaked in resin.

Nice thats similar to what I did with my speakers, but they are just in vinyl covered boxes to match the strut towers.
