i built my enclosure. it is nearly identical to the last one, all i did different was change the tuning a tad, changed one of the dimensions by a half an inch, and put some angles in the front corners of the box. oh yeah, i rounded the port inside and out. also rounded all edges.

another angle. this shows how similar it is to the old one.

as i said before, im gonna try to make it look good this time as well. started painting the port flat black, but had a little bit less paint than i thought i did. tomorrow ill get some more of the flat black spray paint, and finish painting the port. ill also get the fleck finish for it, and spray it down.

Sanded that putty down, then painted the port.

This morning.
Taped up the port.

Next i taped up the top. also taped around the inside of the cut-out, because its painted black too, and the texture finish would make the cut-out tight.

next i took the rubber ring off my sub, and put it into the hole so i can trim the tape down.

http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o239/hugh-g-rection/000_1279.jpg
finished taping the top.

ready for the fleck finish.

just waiting for my wife to get home now, she is getting the fleck finish from lowes on her way home from work.
Got the box sprayed, i love this fleckstone stuff.
Port looks Great!

angle look.
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o239/hugh-g-rection/000_1286.jpg
straight look.
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o239/hugh-g-rection/000_1284.jpg
Eventually im gonna get a reverse decal cut of the kicker logo, stick it on right above the port, and dust it with black spray paint, to create a shadow logo. should look sick.
