box and false floor done.

paint is just regular automotive paint with a clear coat that has silver flakes mixed into it.

and yes tom ill remount the subs and see if i can straighten them out a bit.

 
very sweet. its nice to hear that somone painted their box the right way with sanding and primer.

good job. i wish you had more steps of the paintjob and building process taken however.

 
i can explain some of the steps of painting the box.

first i sanded the hole box with 150 grit. then i put a coat of sealer on the box. after it dried sanded some more with 240 grit till all the holes from the screws and the seems from where the wood meets the wood. after done sanding put a coat of primar on, then sanded again with 240 grit. then another coat of sealent. after that all i did was sprayed on 2 coats of regular black car paint. then the first coat of clear i added the silver sparkles into the clear. after that dried another 3 coats of clear was added with out the silver flakes. then i wet sanded and polished and thats the trick. My dads owns an automotive shop with a spray booth so it was easy to paint the box with there spray guns and such.
