thanks looks like autozone should have it
Should a quart be enough? Or do I really need a gallon?

Quart, one pack of mat

K, I'm gonna go have some fun with expanding foam now lol...lots of gaps to fill around the baffle outside the box //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Expanding foam is in, hopefully i got some in all of the gaps...wasn't easy to say the least...worst case scenario I end up tearing this box out and doin a single 18 with a more standard porting method in my trunk //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

lol oh well, honestly I think the expanding foam will be enough without any glassing, but I might glass anyway, not sure

I plan on it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif granted it'll still be like a gigantic leaky ported box, but hopefully no air leaks into the cabin other than straight through the ports

man thats a project and a half trying to build that into the trunk. Looks pretty sweet though, specially how the front baffle goes right up to the surround on the sub. If you can get it all sealed up just make some grills for the ports and paint em similar to the interior and people will just think they are grills for some 6x9's or something.

Hope the foam worked, looking forward to the rest of the box going in.

haha seriously...It makes me wish I could just wall it and get it over with, but I need my back seat //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I've thought about making the ports look like some speakers or something to just make it look very stock and stealthy, but at the same time, once I clean up the area around the port and get it to flow smoothly around them, I think two big *** ports right behind your head when you're sittin back there will be pretty awesome as well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

thanks man

if you haven't got the materials yet, get some body filler and glass mat, and rip the mat apart and make some duraglass/kitty hair. Or find some duraglass/kitty hair (fiberglass reinforced filler)

Glob in it, use a squeegee or your hand to smooth and apply it, then if you want, glass over it with a couple layers. 1 quart resin should be enough, if there is a smaller can, that may work too, depending on how much you use.

Alright thanks I'll look into it, autozone has something called fiberglass resin 'jelly', could that be useful in this situation?

Pics in a sec of a new toy I just picked up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Oh my, your getting serious!

can't wait to see the vids on this one.

 

[Rashaddd 5,000+ posts]

Well to be honest...hard to tell whether its sealed up or not...very hard to tell, but I hooked up the amp, started playin on em...wow...already its pretty considerably loud...huge difference after sealing the baffle and ports off with that expanding foam...

anyone want vids as it is right now?
