Good shit! Gonna be getting loud, dont forget deadner or it will sound like a herd of buffalo trying to escape.

Lol you right though. A lot of people think its just buy stuff and put it in the car but there's so much preparation that you have to put behind getting you gear. I don't know when the build will officially start, but I plan on starting soon. After I get everything I need purchased. I appreciate that advice bro.

This is the style of box I have decided to do. I like the look and the port at the bottom is what I was going for anyway. I will be uploading progress in about a few minutes. Just keeping everyone updated.

I don't know who's box design this was, but if I did I would give them credit. In NO way did I come up with this idea. This was a box I saw and wanted to mimic. Some things may differ in the two, but the overall idea was not mine. It simply had the style I wanted to go for. Whoever designed this box did an awesome job and I want to make sure I give you credit.

Oh yeah I was able to do the transplant surgery on my 2 new 18's lol. When I purchased these, the dust caps were white and didn't match my build theme, so DC Audio helped me out and got me the chrome decals for my dust caps and even told me how to do it. Here it goes:

I would have doubled layer all around for that large of an box. 2" all around, and some mean bracing. 

nice start, I like the chrome decals

Thanks bro. Makes the subs look so much cleaner.

Chrome decals do look good but the all black look is badass.

That I would have to ask the builders. I know we are going to have it at 22" H, 48" W, and about 48-54 D (Not quite sure). Lol nothing wrong with asking.
