Depends on what type of enclosure your looking at building. Let us know if it's a spare tire well sub enclosure, trunk enclosure free standing enclosure or rear dash enclosure ?

well i want to make a box that looks like it is connected to the side of my tahoe, but you will be able to tell that it is not because it will be painted to match the color of the car should i make a box of mdf first and then make a fiberglass around it or what

first question would be what and how many subs do you want to put in your box? second, you want to plan out how you want the box to look (stealth or highlighted) You can get the best fiberglass materials at www.selectproducts.com let me know if i can be of any help

So you dont have to use so much tape when tapeing up the whole back of the trunk you can put down a layer of tape then spray 47 adhesive then put on tinfoil then another layer or 2 of tape. just thought that might help you out with the box
later
