Protect everything really well:

First layer of fiberglass:

I hope this crap comes off:
I leaned over to make sure the 'glass was saturated completely and I put my hand on the trunk sill. I'm going to try to buff it off.

you've probably either solved the problem or it's dried and can be flaked off by now, but next time, some acetone on a rag will take it off before it dries.

Here's the mold after a layer of fleece on top of the previous layers and after it's been trimmed to size.

Here's the baffle on the box. You can see where the mold shrank a little bit while it was drying. After I've put on the reinforcing fiberglass mat to hold the baffle to the sides and carpeted it, it should fit perfectly again.

Acetone eats plastic.

I'm just going to use automotive polish and polsih it off. I've got a few dots on the bumper cover too.

Two questions, how do you plan on securing the enclosure and what are planning on doing with mounting the amp?

I'm either going to have a friend mill either an aluminum or plexiglass U-shaped piece that goes where the stock plastic thing is that makes that part a storage area or I'll bolt it to the floor.

I haven't decided where I'm putting the amp yet. Any suggestions?

will there be enough air space?

i tried calculating this out with a couple different shops and one guy told me the best space you were going to get out of that right side is .7 of a cubic ft.... which is more than enough if your running a 10"... but that kicker looked like a 12" to me, i may be wrong...

anyways if this all pans out want to make me one with a racetrack oval cutout for my boston spg?

A racetrac oval cutout? huh?

yea i like being unique,

only problem is it needs 1 solid cubit ft.... and i could imagine it would blow the S### out of anything smaller... very powerful sub

i think there is no such thing is rice in the car audio world. i mean, look at competition cars. why stop with leds, why not put a fishtank back there as well?

how did you raise the letters? if you cut them out of another layer of wood, just cut out a set of plexi, buff them up really hard, and light them from behind. then the whole things will glow.

Now I have to figure out where I'm going to put the amp.
