There's still a few things I want to do, such as clean up the wiring a bit, put some LED's in so I can see the amps when the box is opened and I also want to custom paint the amps to match the rest of the system.

Looks good man!

Clean ass install bro. I love how clean and sleek it looks with everything closed up.

Are those fans in the vents for the amp rack?

Thanks man!
And no there not, but the vents are for air circulation, I plan on putting in 2 fans in a push pull system right away.

Thanks everyone, and yeah I build the box at school and built the falsefloor and everything else at home. It's in a gmc Jimmy. I think it sounds awesome, really clear and deep clean base. I had it at the store where I bought it and the salesman came out and demo'd it was was amazed w1's could hit that hard.

Nice custom work bro, Seems the box fits perfectly with everything.

No wonder it sounds so good!
