i guess you guys are all about looks, if you want max performance from your subs fiberglass isnt the way to go. it will not with stand alot of power like MDF will. but i guess its up to yourself to decide what you want to use..

Incorrect. Fiberglass is very, very strong, especially in curves, and can be made just as strong as MDF boxes with far less thickness(and weight.)

Now if you were making a fiberglass sub box with lots of flat spots, it'd make sense to use MDF in those flat spots(or use rope or something to create curves; Curves = strength with fiberglass.)

And also, you don't need 300 watts RMS for subs. Maybe for something horribly inefficient, but I've had my ears hurting from one of my subs running 150 watts RMS. And that sub wasn't even efficient really. Remember, every time you double the wattage, you're only gaining approximately 3 db of volume.
