I have one made, its almost done. gimme in 2 more weeks with it.

As far as ideas.. its what you want it to look like. Also if I was you i would make mine in the car for the exact fitment. If you get someone else to make it freehand; you won't know if it'll fit in the end. Plus shipping that heavy thing, good luck with that. Mine is fiberglassed in the trunk. If you want a rough pic, I can send ya that.

^^ Yes mine is daily driver. eff trunk space. that what the backseats are for. LOL

My buddy kyle's eclipse below

My friend Tim from atlanta

Yes his backseat is the beginning of an air plane which flows to the rear of the trunk design. Cool Ain it!

UHH.. his beautiful engine bay. Yup Honda civic B20 motor w/B16 Heads. Turbo'd All hot jetcoated, chromed out.

Its all how ya want it to look. Your own ideas.

Wow those are some crazy set-ups. I'm doing something like that now, guess I'll have to rework some of the sketches and make something a little more elaborate.

hehe.. yep.. I made mine in my trunk. Its nearly impossible to take it out. So if someone wants to steal my setup in the trunk, they can go at it all they want. If they're sucessfull.. I'll let them have it. LOL Cuz i know it wasn't easy.

Yea like it said, its all about the creativity of your mind.

Note to self: Get my ass off next week and finish bondoing up the fiberglass piece smooth, then primer. LOL

My car club buddy stephen's old accord setup

He made his setup in his trunk and painted it in the car too. LOL. His enclosure can't be taken out. [He help me fiberglass mine] We asked him what happens when his tailights goes out? He said he just put in new bulbs before the fiberglassing. But he sold the accord 2 years ago. so its not his problem now. LOL

I was thinking about doing something like this minus the amp-pyramid thing in the middle to regain trunk space

I heard fiberglass enclosures make you lose sound quality(and I believe so due to not having the right enclosure dimensions) did any of you lose quality?

if you do some calculations, you can actually plan out your fiberglass enclosure with the right volume. however, most of them don't have a back to them, they are just open air enclosures, thin layers of glass over speaker cloth on a wooden skeleton, then glassed and bondo-ed in, in which case an open air sub will be fine, but others may not sound as good.

wrightie · 12-09-2005, 02:46 PM

These enclosures are made to specifications and certainly dont sound bad. I wish you could here them. They sound amazing.

Dude, how can the enclosures be made to specification. Weren't those originaly made for a different brand of sub than the JL?

wrightie · 12-09-2005, 09:21 PM

The two outside enclosures were made for different subs yes. the w3 subs needed the same volume in a sealed enclosure as the typhoons I originally had. :P

Yes I am still selling them. check out my post in the Bazaar section.
