looks way better than your 1st attempt good job, its always the best way to learn by DOING something and f'ing it up and figuring out why its messed up, then doing it over correctly

This wont be my box i hope to sell it to my cuz he owns his own car audio shop. I hope to create my own busness from this fixing boats, cars and such. Making the boxs is a learning experance. After I get really "good" I will make a custom box and amp rack for my truck and my buddys blazer for his 15''s :thumbs:
