Talking Finished sub fiberglass enclosure

This is my first post and 1st M5.
Below is a link to a picture of my custom fiberglass enclosure in the trunk of my 2019 M5Comp.
  • JL 10w7
    Alpine 600w mono Amp PDX-M6
    Technic PNP harness for Harman/Kardon or B&O sub line level outputs
    Technic ASD Bypass harness (to eliminate extra bass from ASD)
    AudioControl LC2i 2 Channel Line Out Converter
    Nilight - 50040R 10 Pack 12V Car Add-a-Circuit Fuse Adapter


It was about 35 hours of work all in, mostly from Fiberglass work and because I was really careful about wiring it up myself.
The bass is great with the pass through open and mediocre with it closed.
I’m happy with it.

That looks fantastic and I'm guessing it sounds great too. It's a shame you aren't too close or I'd ask for your help to do the same to mine or pay you to make another one!! Nice work!

The carpet is off Amazon. Not a perfect match, but looks acceptable.

That's a no. It was roughly 15 hours of labor and $200 in materials. If I could have paid someone I would have. Good luck.

I used a wiretap from Amazon. This fuse was a 5amp I believe.
