True ill work with MDF how much does that usually run?

a 4'x8' sheet is only $22 at home depot.

2'x4' is around $13.

If you get the 4x8 sheet, have a 2nd person and a big vehicle for easy's sake.

Ultimate, one suggestion. I like the amp rack, but why didn't you cut it long enough to go right next to the box, then just drill holes into the amp rack to run the wires under it so that it looks a lot cleaner? You could also cut a mounting area for the remote gain if you wanted as well. Just ideas. nice work.

Depending on how your ride looks internally, you may also want to look at baltic birch. It's more expensive than MDF, but is sexy when stained. If you plan on adding a wood grain theme or something, you may want to look into that.

Nah no wood grain not me i don't like that i painted my interior pieces flat black im gonna redo em soon though theres some chips but still looks good all flat black on the dash pieces and door pieces
