thanks again guys. i have a feeling that what i do for the trunk and rear shelf is going to be different from the door panels and dash. ive figured out a way to make the panels the 12 pounds total that i listed above, but with a 3/4" thick frame. since i dont expect that i will need all of that, i may be able to get them down to 10 lbs and maybe less. that still doesnt include the trunk floor or the piece that you would lean over if reaching into the trunk. both of those arent planned to have any detail and can be made much thinner.

its hard to shave a couple pounds here and there, especially when my sub has a 14lb magnet and the box will probably be another 20 lbs. but the weight savings is worth a shot for the same or a little more work.

still wondering about how the pics above got their detail????? what did they lay down and glass over? how did they do it?
