Thats some pretty crazy fiberglass work. I imagine it took a ton of time and money. I don't think you can fit many more electronics in that Scion.

I mentioned that I make large fiberglass stuff also. Here is a few examples. A lot of this ends up at theme parks and some is at Disney. The details are painted on once the basic item is delivered to its site.

Again this is a friends composite shop. I just think this is interesting. I still have accord boxes for sale if anyone wants one. You can email me any questions at Azenis29@aol.com they are also still listed on ebay.

I would not drive a Scion XB. That is my Honda Element.

You are close...I purchased my Element from a friend that works for Kicker. I don't think he is "strikingaccord". My Element was made for showcasing the SX amp line used in SEMA / Surf Open as well as many other shows.

Sorry about calling your Element a Scion,but in those pictures its hard to tell for me at least. I just bought a Kicker 10 inch CV series sub and tried it in this accord box. WOW this woofer is the perfect match! It hits very hard for a single 10! I hooked it up in a friends Mini Cooper who has a enormous kicker amp,this thing really hits hard! The Mini is a convertable and we were fluffing the top each time the bass hit. Once in a while you find the perfect match and this box with a CV series kicker is one of them. The CV series is a cast frame,rubber surround and dual voice coil. I bought this woofer from a audio shop here that sells my boxes. I only paid 50.00 for it. If anyone wants this box with the woofer I wont mark it up any. Heres a picture. Again I really am sorry about the whole scion/element thing.

Sorry lousy picture,hope this ones better. If anyone wants bass in there 1998 to 2002 Accord without giving up much space this box with this woofer is a good choice. Also probally one of the cheaper routes. http://http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotor...#ht_500wt_1182

The CVR isn't a terrible sub, but is really lacking in SQ. The CVR can be very muddy if not given a lot of power. But the 10" does have a bit clearer sound than the 12". Now the CVX is a great sounding sub, it uses the same driver as the L7 but uses a circular cone. The square cone of the L7 really makes it a one note wonder, I really don't like how it sounds even though it can get very loud. My CVX isn't quite as loud, but has great response and clarity.

Ok if Im happy with this CVR sub then the CVX must be truly amazing. This thing really sounded nice and produced nice clean bass. I mean its a single 10 I didnt expect mirror shaking bass but it did it well. The CVX must be something really wild because this CVR kicks butt. I will keep my eyes open for a 10 inch CVX to try in my box. I use the kicker S8L5 square sub in one of my boxes and that lil 8 inch kicker does a good job. It fits the Honda Insight and thats a tiny car,no room for much more. Remember its a stealth box completely out of sight. The Insight box sits by the spare tire completely out of sight
