Default so i got bored...what do you think?

i was driving home from work yesterday and was thinking about what i wanted to do that night and i got this bright idea!..build myself a custom trunk haha

well it was actually really easy and only wasted about and hr or two...but i took my spare out and placed my small 12'' box in there...cut a hole in my covers...then placed the new JL audio 12" sub i bought in the hole and into the box in the spare tire well...

due to the box being a little higher then what it needs to be it kinda lifted the carpet a little but im going to do a few things later on to make the gaps look better...but as for right now i think it looks damn good!



sorry about the cell phone pic...ill get better later on tonight if you guys want some more

looks good, but ya kinda killed the ability to carry stuff in the trunk unless ya make a good strong grill for it and clean it every so often.
heres what i did. 2-10's and it takes up almost no useable trunk space. if you built it right you can fit a 12" each side if ya wanted.

yea i hear what you are saying...i thought about getting a cage for the sub but honestly i never use the trunk...i just toss everything in the pass seat haha....

but i didnt cut up the carpet that has the "Z" logo on it so no mater what, if i get bored of it i can just cut a new piece of plastic and be good to go

thank you for the ideas tho!
