I'd like to see it. | | | 06-27-2011, 05:49 AM | #5 | Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: portland Posts: 42 | I'll get it posted, it looks awesome. Custom made though which cost a bundle at about a 1000 bucks. Yes crazy but they had never done a ti and I wanted it done professionally. It sounds superb. Sorry no pic I'll get one up. | | | 06-28-2011, 04:26 AM | #6 | Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: portland Posts: 42 | Sub enclosure 318ti Musiccar Northwest Ok I hope this uploads... I had this enclosure made by Musiccar Northwest in Portland Oregon. Fits perfectly,sounds superb!! A bit pricey but the alternative of building a box that wastes trunk space was less than desirable. | | | 06-28-2011, 04:31 AM | #7 | Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: portland Posts: 42 | Oh BTW, this system has an Alpine component set in the front (spx 13 pro) and the 10 inch kicker in the back, powered by an Alpine PDX5 amp. Amp is mounted in the space for the spare tire tools and the cross overs left fender well. | | | 06-28-2011, 11:04 PM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Rocky Hill, CT Posts: 1,065 | $1000 That is INSANE, no matter how custom. I've seen guys pay less for a custom fiberglass enclosure fitting the whole trunk of a SUV. As long as you're happy with it, I'm glad. Not trying to come off as a jerk, but that's 1/4 of what i have into my car I made mine myself, pics here: http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=26084 . I had not more than $40 in supplies into it, then figure around 10 hours (I used WAY too thin of 'glass mat, it didn't build up thickness fast enough). I debated making up a couple in my (little) spare time, but didn't think anyone would pay enough to make it worth my while, which would probably be $150-200+shipping. __________________ 1995 318TI base. 95 2.5L from 325IS.

I can't work with fiberglass and I wanted the trunk space so they had me by the balls. The 325 enclosures don't fir a ti, I have a 325 enclosure as well from my last car. The car is for sale so I will be selling the ti enclosure separately at some point. | | | 06-29-2011, 12:47 AM | #10 | Junior Member Join Date: Jun 2011 Location: Park City, KS Posts: 16 | Thanks for the photo and the link. These are both great ideas! | | | 06-30-2011, 06:41 AM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2010 Location: Riverside ,So-Cal Posts: 725 | Quote: Originally Posted by budget76 $1000 That is INSANE, no matter how custom.
