C300 custom sub box (homemade)
Thanks man!
A bit of down time now. I have the box over with my man Kevin for paint. He's doing it in his spare time, so it may be later next week that I get it back. I'll be sure to post photos of the completed box, and hopefully it'll be in the car soon after!
Thanks for hanging in there guys! Hopefully my end result is something worth waiting for

Here's what everyone (mainly myself) has been waiting for- it's finally done.
Pretty wild to see my design come to fruition, and I couldn't be happier. This being my first fiberglass box ever, I couldn't be happier. My man Kevin did a phenomenal job with the paint, couldn't be more impressed!
Without any more wait, here she is...
Test fit in the trunk:

Box in the open:

W7 in place, and fits like a glove:

I can't wait to wire up the car and have this baby doin work!
Thanks for following my thread, I'll post final pics of everything once it's said and done.

Not yet- I wish. There's a small possibility it'll be rockin tomorrow. But it's tough to find time. It'll take a bit to get all the wirin and re-Q in place.
I'll be sure to post final pics when everything is done, I can't wait either!

Do you mean in the trunk, or in the box? The answer is no to both, but I may end up doing my trunk lid in time.
That was an option I was facing too. Only thing, I didn't want to tweak the car to the point that it couldn't be put back to stock. So I did it this way.

Here's the project wrapped up! For some the W7 may be a little much, I have the amp set around 5/8 power and gain's on the re-Q around half for the signal. Bass is set to 0 on the system's bass boost. To give you an idea, if I set my iPod touch on the cupholders, it shakes in place like an earthquake. This sub is just unreal.
I'm really happy with the outcome, just have to quiet up my license plate now lol
Here's everything installed. You can see the re-Q behind the W7, it's a convenient spot for adjustments and everything, and it's held in with velcro. Everything can easily come out and look factory again in about an hour worth of work, if needed.
I'm really happy with how everything came out, and it was worth the effort!

I'll take some DSLR pictures soon, I have some wheels and tires and springs on the way, so I'll wait for that, and than it's photoshoot time!
Thanks for following! I'm ready to make another now

Also- a side note. If anyone wants to run 4 gauge wire through a C, it'll fit through the fire wall if you go under the fuse block on the driver's side of the car. T20s hold it down, and with it out of the way you'll see a clear opening to the car.
I used the "DIY Amplified Subwoofer install" for assistance running the rear speaker wires for my re-Q. Great DIY! Thanks for that being here

I put my mind to something and go after it until it's finished. Now I'm reaping the benefits for a long time to come!

Thanks you again!
I'll take a clip today while I'm in the car. The W7 pumps out some lows, so it's kinda funny, you don't really hear it, but you can tell haha
That's right Wilson! Soon man!
