    the box is now at the painters. minus the 3/4 inch rope i used for bracing the box is better then 1/4 inch thick with the fiber glass and a little more with the bondo and gellcoat. i will get some picks up when i get it back. should sound awsome.

    doing some glass in my 02

    I did glass the inside wood to seal it and to make it a little stronger as the wood is only ½ inch instead of ¾ , you could use silicone but over time it will loosen up liquid nails would be the preferred alternative to using fiberglass As far as aiming the subs with a fiberglass box it realy...
