Give Paul(lauf) or anyone at Perfect Tones in Milton a call.

I recently called them to inquire about an enclosure for my truck (since Yuli never stops ravin bout them hehe) and they were friendly, helpful and seemed reasonably priced over the phone.

They also look like the do alot of custom work from what you can see on their site.

Thats where I be goin next month to get my
install done.

Cool
Spare tire well tub with plain flat top ~$300

Anything having to stay above the floor and say mold into curved recesses and whatnot starting ~$400.

the idea would be to have a set up with two 10s, and two amps in some kind of rack.

something like these:

something like the above pics, with two subs and two amps

Wow, all those install are way different.
For the first one with the painted glasswork I would charge around $1000 plus a couple Hundred for materials, and you would be responsible for painting it.

whoops, hit reply by accident.
For the second one I would charge about $400, for just the enclosure and amp rack, wiring up the amp would be extra.
For the third I would charge about $600 plus about $100 materials, again paint would not be included.

It's not just a baffle board on the trunk floor. The spare tire well is fiberglassed and then sealed to the mdf.
The 'glassing is the time consuming piece.
