Default Sub Box designs

Thinking about making a sub box for my Mustang using 2-10"s. I will print the diamond plate and the GT and mount it to 6mil PVC (I work for a sign shop).

Not sure which design I like, the diamond plate or the brushed aluminum.

Thoughts?

I like the diamond plate.

By the way, if you're going to do what I did and put them in place of the rear seats, you should stop by my place sometime so I can show you the box I had to make in order to get everything to fit. A picture really wouldn't do justice to the complexity of the shape - but I'll go take one

Brushed aluminum. Go with the second one if your car is red, first one if it isn't.

The brushed aluminum without the red looks great, IMO.
I agree with Dan, if it were a truck the diamond would look great.

Should have mentioned that. My car is Satin Silver but has red brake calipers, thought the red might be a cool accent color.

First brushed aluminum (non-red) is the one I like best. I agree diamond plate is better on a pickup or truck. As for the red, might be cool on brakes but it's kinda weird to explain that if there's no red in the cabin of your stang. Whats the color of your interior? If its not black then brushed aluminum and trying to match the interior could be really cool....or heck...if you could get onto a water jet, carve out the GT and mount it to the aluminum. That would be sweet.

I want one! The brushed with the black GT logo is my favorite.

Blah box...
