you can see the front left and right corners don't meet up flush with the corners of the front of the box. I fixed all that. Everything is fairly flush now.

i think i'll have to build something similar to this. does it stay in place well enough even though it doest 'hold' the front of the towers like it does on the rear? can you lift it up and out of the car easily?

Nice job.
Idea though:if you would have built the box lower you could have used the cargo cover...to hide the amp.

That was the lowest I could for the sub that's in there. I don't have a cargo cover for it. I do have a sunshade the goes over it that allows me to see out but not see in. Looks clean and discrete.

Yes. The front goes around the front of the strut tower tower by about an inch. Just enough to hold it in place.
