So i was thinking that i want to fiberglass my whole trunk but keep it almost like it is now but just raise the bottom alittle so i cna fit my sub in the spare tire hole. u guys think thats a good idea or not? im have been going back and fourth with it and im not sure. The reason i say the whole think is because the plastic sides are crackign some what so i thought why not redo the whole thing. I would paint the sides that would be painted black and put plexglass around the sub with black underneath.
PS i was thinking of using chicken wire so that if it turns out bad i can just take it out and try something differnt. What do yall think?? i dont knwo if its good idea or not |

chicken wire sux, use any kinda cloth its much better to work with, and the resin wont drip though. just get wood doweling to hold the cloth where you wont.
but yeah mdf is HEAVY. fiberglass is the best choice, plus it gives much more profetional results. -------------------- ![]() |
