How does this look for a box?
Does this look good for a box? I still need to take dimensions. Anything need improved or to make it better? Any tips you can give me? I'm going to have my grandpa make me this custom box.

Two comments: first, be wary of rattles because of port location and the direction your subs will be firing in. Second, if you're going to be using ports, you have to put some thought into them or it will sound like ***. Keep in mind that port volume/length will dictate the tuning frequency of your box. I would sugest hitting up the12volt.
I'm assuming from your pictures that you're going to be having the subs fire at the rear of the car and that the ports will be right next to the hatch pull down.

I wouldn't point the ports are each other.
General rule is at least 4" or more space between a port and another object in the car.
Also theres more to making a port than just cutting a hole and adding some runner. It's pretty hard to take a guessimate and make a port sound good off that. Porting allows the box to be tuned for max output at a certain hertz. Most people use a subwoofer box building program or at least some formulas to generate the length of runner and the size of port need'd.
Looking at your design you'll be goosenecking the port airflow are every divider.
