He has (2) JL 10W3v2. I think he'll have too fill the box with a lot of poly not that, that's a really big deal but I think from what I've talked to Skip about he's trying to built it in such a way that he can remove the sub panel and the sub's away and leave the box incase he hits the track or something. Also making the box in such a way that his clubs will fit into the trunk
I was more concerned about the way he was building the box...I thought it would have been better to build a soild box rather than 2 pieces put together. The top piece housing the 2 sub on a plexiglass panel and the bottom being the trunk well.
What do you think?

here would be my only concern, unless I'm not understanding you correctly (which could be ), hopefully you allowed some movement room for the box to allow for the car to twist. If not, the box my crack.

Waiting for some more input before moving forward. I was hoping to start doing the body filler tonight after I get home from work.
