Ive got a mold for a spare tire well box for my car, and a few other guys in my club (same kind of car) want boxes too. how much should i sell the lower portion for (ie the baffle, and the fiberglass spare tire well section, with no top/speaker rings, etc)? i want to give them a good deal, but i also want to make it worth my time. a local shop would make an entire fiberglass spare tire well box for CDN$800, so would CDN$250-300 be resonable? any suggestions? thanks

My install will never be complete..... *sigh*

hello fellow BC'ian [Smile]
i do installs in the lower mainland outta my garage and ive done a few spare tire wells. i charge like 350 with carpet (also depending on how much of a bitch i think the install and molding will be). 400-600 painted or whatever.

how long does it take you? and how valuable is your time. if it is not an entire box, i would say about 300 bucks is fine. and sell them on the net for 450 to people you dont know. i just finished a few tire well boxes, just slightly different than each other, ready to be painted or vinyled, for a few people i know, and charged them each 600 bucks.

its for a MKIII (86.5-92) Toyota Supra. i just picked up a fibeglas roller, its SO much easier to get rid of air bubles, i dont know why i didnt buy one earlier. im in victoria bc. ill post some pics up when i have time, i work fulltime and this is just a side project for extra car mod money [Smile]

i figure this would go alot faster with a chop mat gun and a resin gun, one in each hand hehe. also has anyone used expanding foam to stiffin the mold? its only 3 layers thick right now, i was thinking of building a box to hold it, and fill the empty space with expanding foam. i also have to pick up and air fitting so i can pop them out.
