Default New box for my girls Camaro

Just finished this box this weekend. Shes got a 96 camaro and the only boxes they make go in the rear compartment, but shes got T-tops so that was out of the question, so this fits on the rear deck and wraps up along with the window.

Let's get this clear.... I don't care for audiobahn, but it's a chicks car and she likes how they look so... Whatchya gonna do? [:'(] Hopefully I'll get her into a nice set of 10" CVX's. I got one layin around here so maybe I'll ****** another one for Christmas and throw em in there. Really isn't enough airspace, but it would be nice if there was.

Anyways just wanted to share some pics.

Yeah, wood ring an base. Then fleece, then glass. No I didn't paint it. I had a local body shop do the painting. Yellow Green Metallic, same color as her car.

Did you measure the volume of the enclosure? or just a rough estimate??

Yeah some of the subs are great. In fact I even don't mind their bigger amps. A little too flashy, but not rated bad, i think I remember rating a friends 1200 at like a little over 1000. So they aren't incredibly over rated power wise. But the ampand subs on this box SUCK. lol But it adds some depth to her music and that's all she needs. She has a couple original SOLO-Barics (the round ones ) and a ZR360 in her Blazer and those sound MUCH better. They are old, but I think the original SOLO's and the ZR amps were some of the best to come out of Stillwater.

We measured volume roughly by using packing peanuts and a 1ft square box to measure. So it's really close, just not perfect.
