First time using fiberglass-lots of pics!
This is my first time making a fiberglass sub box. I designed it to fit a 95 GMC Jimmy in the farthest-rear part of the truck. I made the mold/shell with 6 layers of fiberglass matt and resin, then started to fiberglass the MDF pieces into place. This box will hold 2 JL Audio 6W0-4 subs.

Also for the subs--they come with a rubber sealing gasket. I damaged one while re-installing it into another location and was wondering if anyone might have one kicking around or know where I can get one?? Any help appreciated! Enjoy the pics, let me know what you think, or what I could improve.
