My turn to build Q-forms
MODS-I'm not sure if this goes in this catagory or not, but it does have significant fabrication time; anyway, here is my build.
My friend JK Sport has been wanting a pair of Q-forms for his JK to get his sound system back without taking up any space in the rear. We all know how important pace is in a JK, so we decided to make some custom Q-forms to use the dead space along the rear fender wells. I am teaching him the basics of fiberglass fabracation and he is picking it up very quickly. Before long he will be cranking out some very cool mods. Keep your eyes open for his stuff!
On the the build. This is a work in progress and is gonna be VERY time consuming, but here is were we are now.
Making the forms:
Drivers side-Jk Sport did this tape job. It turned out great, I actually like it better than mine..lol
Passenger side
Jk Sport trimming the sides of the form
Adding the rings and cup holder; gotta have a place for the beer...i mean coke..lol
The seat is as far back as it will go, so we will make a stop to prevent it from hitting the speaker
Overview-still in the VERY rough stage, just wait till you see how it's gonna come out!
Ok, back to work...got more projects to do and finsh. Later guys!

More progress on Jk Sports Q-forms (custom speaker boxes)
T-shirt stretched over the form:
Wet with resin, and beginning to take shape:
We pulled the other side off out tonight. I will try and get another layer of fiberglass on it tomorrow morning after I go kill a few coyotes...

awesome work!! wish I could do something like this, I bearly started messing with fiberglass, but not ready for something this big. I need to nail down the right mix ratio, first time it hardened to fast, second time wasn't hardening.

Very nice, and you are off to a good start. I do this sort of fabrication for a living and it looks like you had that all planned out. I have already done an enclosure similar to this for a friend in his 4 door. It turned out nice, and sounded great. Keep up the good work; and as someone else mentioned...you're a machine..so many projects lately!
