I'm new to the concepts behind sub enclosures but would wrapping it in a padded carpet type material help with the shaking of panels? It seems to me that a bulk of sub enclosures have a carpet like material on them. Like I said though, this is all fairly new to me...
If so, we'll do a road trip, kill a polar bear, and wrap your box to match your car.

Looks amazing and good quality, but how does it sound? Did you actually measure and meet the ft³ recommendation of your subwoofer or did you just make a mold that looks good?
You should make more and start selling those. 10" and 12" models. I'm sure they would sell AMAZINGLY.
This wins.

I always thought, pertaining to cars, stealth meant "it looks stock but it aint"
ie: could be interchangeably used like sleeper. I do not think toxic green wheels are stealthy at all, widened stockers would be.
Or something that is all flat black. ; )

yes, I did measure capacity of the box, it was more than required for my 10" sub.
I can make more boxes for 10" and 12" subwoofers for right and left corner of the trunk but it wouldn't be cheap. Keep in mind that I spent about $120 on material and I'd probably charge $100 for labor. Almost identical box made by Audio Solutions goes for almost $400.
