Yeeee thanks bro.

Like I said, thats rough. Once she gets sanded down and carpeted it'll look good. It flows with the door panel giving it a stock look.

You're paying too much and if you are buying it at a supplier, take a minute to look around at all the other stuff they have - you can make your life much much easier by learning about the different additives.

It is literally the best resin I have ever used in my life...

And when it comes to resin/fiberglass, it's better to keep it simple. No need for silly additives and bogus like coloring...

well today was a success kind a lol!!

bad news first the false floor gave me all kinds of issues and wasn't very flexible at all. long story short the false floor was holding me up big time!!

the fans and wiring had to be moved back to the very rear of the trunk as the box had to slide in a bit more then i planned i guess i didn't take into account my stupid angle of my back seat! lol!

now the good news i cut the false floor down and screwed it to the bottom of the box that way i still get the same effect of a false floor... i hope!!

the 11.5inch sono tube i picked up was to big lol opps! time to rethink that one!

o ya and i got the box into the car!!! YA

but my trunk wouldn't close due to the automatic trunk release being in the way so i had to move it!

at any rate here are some pics boo and or congratulate me either or enjoy!!
