why did you use fiberglass may i ask

i just had alot of resin and mat and stuff from another project im working on and figured it would make it stonger and make the corners more rounded, anything wrong with using it?

By no means am I an audio expert like some members here. With that being said I once read a thread were a member suggested placing a vacuum cleaner hose on the box and observing the air that is able to be pulled from the inside of the box. They then suggested placing a small coat of resin to the entire inside of the box to prevent any lose. Makes sense I suppose? But again, Im no expert..

yea kinda looks like it but there is probley at leat 6 inches on each side and i took the spare tire out so there is a pretty big opening under the box from in front of the box to almost all the way to my back seats that fold down
