Custom trunk for the 370Z
 

Here is my custom trunk i jist finiahed building. Turnaround- 1 week.

Intro: It's crazy how much you can get done with time on your side, patience, and a little knowledge to feed the brain. I started to follow through with this idea to build a custom trunk floor for my sub and add extra components and tweeters to the rear last Friday (7/31).

One week later, with a lot of hard work and determination, the project is about 90% complete.

What's left: I now just need to spray foam and dynamat parts of the trunk for added insulation and sound dampening, a new 10" sub, a mono amp, a dedicated battery (optima yellow top), capacitor, and a wiring kit to complete the installation.

I wanted to keep this custom build clean. Of course there are some slight imperfections but i always learn from my mistakes and will perfect my craft. Thanks to @harringtonkevin for the initial help in organizing the maze of wiring i once had. Wiring the third time around was truly a charm��

Thanks.

Looks clean

Thanks bro. wanted to keep it that way.

Looks great!

Do you still have the spare in there?

So is there a box or just a baffle...?

The spare is out.

Tested the sub in the trunk space without a box..it sounded alright surprisingly. But i will be building a box sometime next week.

My only regret is not having the amp recessed..ugh..I'm itching for a redo lol

Looks good! I'm actually doing a full custom trunk right now. All the panels are being replaced with fiberglass, and 2 12" subs. I wanted to go with something more similar to your design, but I know I'll toss something back there and puncture the sub, even with a grill.

right on!! I started a new build today. Trying to do a little different design with the amp, mids and sub recessed a bit.

My rear deck
 

I custom made two panels that fold together to include my amps and sub, but I may be evolving this look in the future. I will include some night pictures soon.

love the recessed look!! looks clean too.

Here is the night version I promised

SICK! going with blue as well or a multicolor leds.

Refined prototype
 

As promised, I decided to learn from my mistakes from the prototype I built 2 weeks ago or so. He are some teaser pics of what is to come.

- dynamat the trunk (only thing left is the door)
- wrapped my 2 farad capacitor
- amp enclosure with cooling fan to be mouted flush into the false floor sitting atop the amp enclosure
- jl audio 300.4 amp recessed on the false floor
- multiamp wiring kit:
