plexiglass enclosure

does anyone know if 1/2" plexiglass would be thick enough for a sub box. i am currently using a pair of kicker comp vr 12s. est spl of 140-145. i know it would probably hold up but would it give too much causing a significant loss in db's?

thanks for your input,
jacob

3/4 plexi would probably be a better bet.

if i can do it w/ 1/2" that would be great because my dad has a little. i would like some 3/4" but unfortunately money does not grow on trees. would the 1/2" suffice?
