There is an older thread about this somewhere that should come up in a search. But one method is to cut panels of 1/4" plywood or MDF and wrap them individually then attach the wrapped 1/4" thick panels to cover the baffle or side panels to help conceal seams. There are pictures in the older thread on vinyl.

How and where would I search for this? Is there a search box or just scan down the threads? Thanks

Here you go. This is my second enclosure but first time dealing with a material called sky in Italy where I'm stationed at. I think it is close to vinyl or fake leather.

Thanks! I didn't see it before the pics but there is an area that the material doesn't cover that I thought the amp would(but it doesn't). It's really anoying. I also need to learn how to tune the amp and head unit because it doesn't get as loud as I thought it would. I thought with 1100 rms split between the two subs would be shaking windows. It gets loud enough to were it is uncomfortable to stay in the car at full volume, but with the doors shut and outside about 25 feet it doesn't shake the house windows. I think also that part of the problem is the size of displacement in the enclosure because the 10's are rockin but it seems like they should be louder. I had to sacrifice some space because my wife still wanted room for groceries, but I should have designed it for more cubic feet, I think. I wanted to build this for an amature competition so if you guys have any suggestions I would greatly appreciate them. Thanks
