Naa...naa... Its a nice box man. I just dont know why the sub is facing that way. Well I guess it doesnt matter if its loud anyway. I would take that box over any other square pos. I'm sure others think the same they just arnt post ******. They look at the thread and think hmm...cool but dont reply. Thats the whole point of the boards is replying. so wtf

yeah i spose, i aimed the sub that way so it kinda looks like it is facing the amp sort of, in the back of my car it looks better than that, plus i didnt want it to face straight up, so i decided to face it a lil back, and towards the left to kinda make it look cool with the angles and stuff, i think after it looks all one color and is shiney maybe people will like it alot better, cause right now its not much to look at with the rings still bein wood color, it makes it look kinda ugly, and the finish isnt glossy, but it will be after im done with it, i think i would sell a single sub box for $200 plus shipping, and $50 for each additional speaker, that sounds like a good price to me, cause its alot of work to get it to look that good

YEah face the other one the other way. Then it will really look twizted. I say a box @ a car show like that. Looked cool. Hey get yourself a dustmask, sand paper and some bondo. If you want to sand down the fiberglass you will loose it thickness so I would buy a gallon of bondo slap it on, sand it down, prime it, then paint it. Yeah.....good idea.
