Did you pick-up the installers name? Was it Billy Brown by chance? If so I know him very well. FYI

Comes with the box.
I can make a casting of it but I need permission from 4080 first!
He made the original.
(I use about 80 gallons of RTV rubber a month at work so I know what I am doing with the stuff)

Thanx, 4080 sent me an e-mail. Neat looking grill!

Hi all, Do you guys know where i can get a pair of thoose sweet custom sub boxes? Also, by putting in an aftermarket amp, does that effect the 8's Nav system?

Thanks.

I think you just need to PM 4080 and he'll give you the details.

Random question: Anyone know what those JLW6's are going for these days??

You can PM or email 4080 but I remember some people said recently that he didn't respond, so I'm not sure if he still is making these or not.

As for the amp having an effect on the nav system - I'm not sure why is this a question... how would that happen?

I know the guy who builds these boxes personally (its not 4080). The builder and 4080 are busy on their next generation G35 box, but I think they have some RX-8 boxes in stock (not sure why the lack of marketing.)

About the "As for the amp having an effect on the nav system " I read this thread https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-interior-audio-electronics-24/how-do-i-keep-nav-voice-aftermarket-4ch-amp-31024/ the other day and i got worried. Any thoughts? Perhaps I missed something.

4080 is around. I just purchased two boxes from him (when they are installed I will post a pic). 4080 doesn't answer a lot of e-mail questions, but then, so what? I'm not looking to chat. He is straight up and ships immediately upon payment.

I was wondering if this box could be made to hold 12" subs. I looked all over the site and didnt find anything on it. I dont know if 12" would fit there but if anyone can make them me one of these hit me up

the 4080 boxes can only hold 10 inch subs. As far as I know, no one else is making boxes for that location, let alone one that can hold 12's

That location simply doesn't have enough space for a 12. You'd never get enough air space for the 12 to react properly; unless you got really creative with going into other places with the box... like out and forward more, into the 'hole' that most people seem to mount their amps in, etc... it just wouldn't be feasible.
