speakers in box, losing loudness?

Maybe you should look into putting the Type X's into the kick panel and the Type R's in the doors strictly as a midbass. Putting a midrange/tweet in the center is going to cause some major sound issues. A "stereo" signal consists of a left and a right. Remember.....more isn't always better.

There's no kickpanel room on the driver side though, solely due to the clutch pedal being in the way, nor do i have enough experience with fiberglass to do such a thing unfortunately :/

Put the type R's in the rear where the 6X9's were if you want, but ditch the ghetto box. That's not a good place to put speakers.

Here is another one for you. Use one set of comps upfront 6x9's rear then use the other set of comps make a center channel. Just kidding about the center channel. Either get rid of 1 set of comps or the 6x9's. Agreed the box thing has to go it is only making matter worse. It is messing up your imaging and staging.

alright

but I can't really find a way to mount them in the 6x9 area without looking completely hideous

You can't just take a piece of MDF, cut it our a little larger than the factory hole, router around the edges, cut your hole for the 6 1/2" set, sand it down where all the edges are smooth, buy some filler primer, prime it a few times, and put a coat of wrinkle finish paint on it? It would be cheap to do and it would look decent. Not the best but decent.
