Also purchased a Solid Audio F2500D.

Running it at 2 ohms so somewhere between 1-1.5k watts

super delay but finally got my laptop functional (had a full beer filter through the keyboard lol) so ill update this

started off by running the new power and ground wire and adding my new xp750

old 4ga vs new xskorpion 1/0 ofc

did some digging and couldnt have found a more perfect hole in the firewall hiding right behind/under my battery!

crimped and soldered

cable management. also lucked out seeing as this was able to fit (barely) under the trim that runs along the side of the car

IMAG0206.jpg

rough and messy wire up but it was a lot of progress for the day so i was happy

IMAG0207.jpg

now for the new box to accommodate the second 12 i aquired

IMAG0208.jpg

started off on the double baffle

next on some of the angled port walls. didnt turn out as well as i wanted it to but it is still functional.

EDIT;; also forgot I ran out of birch so instead of wasting 20 bones on a 4x4 sheet i used some scrap mdf i had lying around. since it was only for the internal port wall and will never really be seen i wasnt too concerned.

got the box started and placing the port. also painted all the visual parts of the port blue for later

internal bracing with a 1 1/2" dowel rod. Cuts werent perfect either, but i went heavy on the glue and used #12 2" screws to secure them

So its been roughly 4 months since then. ripped the box out the other day to give the baffle a face lift

popped out the level 4 12's

after applying some wood filler

IMAG0298.jpg

some good sanding, more wood filler along with more sanding. touched up the port and gave the baffle 4 coats of a nice gloss black

IMAG0301.jpg

added a decal i had laying around

IMAG0303.jpg

flash really shows the gloss

Box looks great. Did you use primer? I noticed that with wood if you don't use a good primer you still see the texture of the wood. Tuned in.

I didn't use primer and am a lil annoyed i didn't. At certain angles with the light the texture does show pretty clearly. I'm not too concerned tho still turned out pretty good.

I'll shoot um some pics of the car tonight or tm.

Dropping the car off tm to get the whole drivers side fixed up while im on the beach in florida haha. finally putting the body work over the bass lol
