its actually really simple, all you need is the fiberglass mat, or cloth, and some resin/hardener. The hard part is knowing how to mix the two, but it tells you on the side of the resin container. After its all mixed up, just lay down your glass, and soak it with resin, wait for it to dry, and you have yourself something. After that its all finishing, like sanding, and smoothing to make it look nice.

That is obviously just the basics, and it will probably take you a few trys to get good at it.

the amp pulls right out of the spare tire, I will just have to let the amp rest on the trunk floor, making sure not to take any hard corners. I guess I won't be making any hard turn, because I will be driving on a doughnut, not the best for handeling.

I sweai give you mad props for this, you should really talk to someone guy from scion so they would start puting this in TCs and get mad money for selling ur design patent, i hate those crappy bazooka subs.
I did a sub box myself but it is nothing compared to wut you did.
If i wur you i would cut out plexi glass into the trunk lid and put some neons in to have a more custom look, cuz right now ur work is so clean that it looks like the car came with it lol. I love it thou

That was the whole idea of the install, to make it look stock.

I do like the custom installs with neons, plexi, and all that fun stuff, but just not in my car.

I can garantee that someone out there is in the process of producing something like this to sell... like ED

i LOVE it

Yeah, thats it.

In the furute I will probably use the truck bed liner stuff, its SO much stronger than undercoating. I just like the textured surface, it gives it a more factory look.

Here are a few pics of the underside of the floor. I didn't do a great job of carpeting it, but its the underside, so who cares. It's kind of dirty, it is my daily driver after all.
