Talking My new trunk

Hy. The speakers in the car are also changed to Focal 570 cv1, and Focal 690 cv1. The sub is a Focal Polyglass SB 27 V1, and the amp is a 6 channel JBL GTO. I can tell you it sounds amazing D sorry for the blurry images I will make better ones

Damn clean, and well executed fabrication. Can I make a suggestion? What if you mounted the amp and cap on plexi instead of carpet, run the wires down so they go through and paint the bottom and sides pieces high gloss black? If you paint the plexi w/ black on the opposite side it would look unbelievably deep and glossy. This way when you look in, all you see is the clear top plexi, amp and cap a **** load of piano black underneath. With that color neon it would Pop! Just a thought. Other than that, very nice bro!

Hy. Thanks for the advices:D The amp is mounted on a plexi, not on the carpet, but it's not painted. I've thought about that too but they said that it cannot be painted beacuse the paint doesn't remain on the plexi. Other solution would be to change it to a colored one. Thanks anyway:D

if you sanded the botton so the paint would stick better, wouldn't it still be very glossy since the top of the plexy isn't sanded?

No, the paint will etch the acrylic itself, there's no need to prep it. The packing tape will provide a durable layer between the paint and any friction on the surface it lays on. DON'T SAND THE PLEXI !!!
