new fiberglass box done!!

well, i finally got off my *** and decided to make a fiberglass enclosure
to show case one of the brands i sell at my shop
and give an example of our custom work.
took me 2 days to build( not straight through, maybe 6 hours start to finish)
and then a good friend painted and airbrushed it.

tell me what you think













the car

i was unaware that "skulls" gave you pimp ride status.

the whole paint scheme is more" bio-mech " than anything
my friend did it , and i just let him roll with it
just wanna show some of his abilities in painting.

by the way, what should i have had him paint on the box to
represent the rx-8's "sport car" look?????

thanks for the opinions anyway
thats why i posted

something more classicy....I don't know...I just think that a box shouldn't have too much textures if it is in an 8~less texture would be nice

so...ya~ the box is cool...just don't like the texture or skulls

Wow that is scary, looks like something impregnated the trunk
Nice detail. Smooth lines.

Can't go wrong putting an extra rotor in the trunk...

I think the install looks top notch, and the graphics are what you wanted. If you like it, cool.

IMO - I guarantee there is not one single thing in this entire universe that anyone can do to their car without at least one person giving a negative response.
In fact, you just inspired me to start a thread in the lounge in search of a mode that everyone can agree on. - Thanks

That is one bad *** piece of work! I would love to have a good looking enclosure like that in my car. I have been wanting to upgrade the sound system for a while and all things going well it will happen in the fall. I would like to use the Divinci amp though any suggestions on where I can find one?

Not a fan of the skulls, but you DO have to respect the work put into this, loving it otherwise.

sweet set up, LOVE the skulls! You should have put a grim reaper on there and that would have rocked!
