Amp rack

Post by o0mx30o »

hey guys im new to this board but im building an amprack built into my trunk and i need some sort of miror like for the inside of it i was wondeirng does chrome paint work? or do i have to use actual mirrors, if i use mirrors will i be able to drill a hole wihough shatering them? and another question my amp rack is basically i took out the spare tire and built a new floor over the trunk and then bolted a box to the bottom and im having a plexiglass window, will i need a computer fan to keep the air cool or will my amp not overheat, i have a JBL 180.2 amp (360rms) do i have to worry about it overheating.. i will post pics of what i have so far

You could also use mirrored plexiglass. That way you can drill or what ever you want. Or if you need something stronger go with mirrored Lexan. Check your local auto glass shops.
