Very nice.. I was thinking of doing something similar. Can you still get to your spare rather easily or at all?

It sounds very loud. I got 3 place at a tweeter show with 145.6 db. I could be louder too if my box was ported but it wouldn't look as nice. The guy that got first place got 150.5 db with L7's in a ported box and the second winner only beat me by .5 bd and he was also ported. So I am happy with what I got cause I didn't spend that much and mu set up looked micer then theirs.

I know that if they were ported they would hit more and louder, but it wouldn't look as nice.

The pics don't work for me, but are the subs facing up? I think I saw this car on sounddomain. If this is what I am thinkin of, I would put the ports on the far sides of the box, at the very end ...you could do two smaller ones, just not circle PVC ones.
