I'm hoping someone can direct me to some custom made sub boxes, I am aware of the JL box and honestly, I just don't like the look, I bought my mini cause I loved the inside and the outside, but I'm far from thrilled with how this box looks, although being practical.

I also found this box:

I love the box, but it only takes 8 in woofers and I am sure will not leave me with a satisfying result. I am currently used to my 12 in. alpine type R getting 500 watts, and it was fantastic :D

I also found this

but again i'm not thrilled, i'm fine with a 10 inch speaker, I've heard the 10 inch type R's and they where great, and there are plenty of other 10 inch subs. again, i'm just not crazy about the box.

i'm looking for something that looks like the USDAudio box, but fits at least a 10 inch woofer, I'd like a fiberglassed smooth box that can be painted to match the exterior of the car.

So post your links to custom boxes. If there are any more.

TRUNK SPACE IS NOT AN ISSUE! I'm a single guy and my back seat is my trunk!
Price is irrelevant, i'm in teh NAVY and have no bills :D


any pictures would be good as well of just general nice built in looking set ups, I plan to do a nice clean set up, sub, amp, and a nitrous bottle.

Again I have a 2002 Mini S.

I don't know much about installations, I've always done them entirely on lmy own out of crutchfield hehe, so nothing remotely custom,

How much would it cost to get a good custom fiberglassed trunk done?

 

honestly it all depends on how much you wanna spend on your set up, i custom build these and have done it for about 6 years now its not hard and those setups cost way more then they should, it would cost about $100 to build your own

as far as the 12 you going to have a hard time getting one to sit in the back and fit on the side it would have to be angled alot more then the 2nd link you posted

in sound its all in how you build the box and to what specs, everyspeaker comes with a guide to box building for size and "hz" . i built a ported box at 24hz for a 10" infinity that was only using about 240w rms and i tell you that thing would beat, i had a hard time keeping the fiberfill in the box because it would blow out

 

Here is one for you. I was considering this, but am going another direction.

 

That box isn't to bad but I didn't see how shallow it is according to may calculations the box would be 14x14x5.5 wich wouldn't fit in the back. Unless they have it over the battery wich would make it whine really loud. I'd contact them and see if that's ever been a problem for 150 its worth it

There here on NAM...

 

they are alright, i'm just surprised with how many mini owners mod the heck out of there cars that there aren't more "exciting" boxes out there.

like i said, i'm in the navy, and i'm getting ready to drop a tremendous sum into the car, i guess i'll be going 100% custom in the trunk :D

 

You want "exciting".. Rear parcel shelf enclosure.. if your the DIY type...

Mine wouldn't do it for him, it's only 8s.

 

This was my budget solution box that I got for $19.95:

Probably won't meet your goals of wanting to also put a N20 bottle back there, unless you stood it upright. Anyway, just something else to consider. Good luck with your build!

 

i saw your post before, i'm actually quite impressed, it looks great, the thing is this is my first car i'm not really on much of a budget, so i want for once that nice custom looking fiberglassed box i've wanted since i was 15, it's been 10 years, it's about time :D
