4080/Zenclosure Alternative Enclosures!!

Hey guys,
As you guys know, our trunks don't have much room to begin with so I wanted to add more bass without taking up room.
I was happy when I came across 4080enclosures.com, but unfortunately they have since gone out of business.
I came across several different options, but really liked the concept of having the floorspace be used from the (2) nooks that our trunks have on either side.

I then came across a guy named Shane, who does custom fiberglass box's for the coupe for sure, and possibly the sedan.
I just got mine shipped to me, and I must say I'm very impressed. I will attach pictures at the bottom and you guys can see. The price was very reasonable, and actually cheaper then 4080's were.
I'm not a vendor or anything, so please don't delete this post. I'm just impressed and hope that other guys looking for this type of box could get it by me getting the word out about other options.

His name is Shane
Contact: fo0manchu@gmail.com

Just something to think about people..

The price of these units is 270.00 for one box, or both for 500.00 plus the cost of shipping. A low price of you ask me.
The rough dimensions are about .75 cubic feet. Which isn't the biggest box, but it is a trade off I'm willing to accept.
Also, he can only do 10" subs, possibly smaller if iterested, but a 12" sub is too big and not do-able with his design.
As far as the sound, I have yet to install them or heard a sub in them.. That will be happening further down the road. Thanks again!

FYI, 4080 no longer sells the boxes as 4080, but they continue to make boxes and sell under a new name. If you do a search on here, you will find a thread explaining the situation. That box is pretty nice though.


Edit: Here is the thread and new site for their boxes.
