I was planning on doing that to my Honda Civic Sedan 04 having the floor made by MDF will that improve bass sound and quality at all?? Im shore it makes it more solid but im not shore if that will hurt the bangging of the bass.

Thanks.

IMO i think 3/4" mdf is overkill for a floor board. It will not help with the bass and will just be extra weight which will = a waste of gas.

1/4" would probably suffice depending on the trunk. If I would to go with 3/4", I'll go with birch. Weighs less and is sturdier than mdf.

I used underlayment used in flooring and nailed supports to the bottom to give a little lift in it and make it sturdy. Then threw some vinyl over it to make it look professional

Cost me about $1 to make lol

i built a half inch mdf floor so i had something to screw my amps down too and the stock cardboard sucked. I took my spare out and threw a kinetik 2400 in there, then threw new carpet on the mdf so when i sell the car i still have the stock stuff to put back in. just drill holes in the mdf to make your wires come up whereever you want them
