Man its gonna be like $150 to send that thing. I would just get a sheet of mdf, some 1 1/2 wood screws, liquid nails, calk, and a friend to help and just build it. Its not hard, honest. And if you can carpet it, go for it. If not, get a can of cheap bed liner and roll it on.

Yeah i just don't have the time and since its winter it's tough cause i dont have a heated workspace. I may look into a shop doing it for me but for now i'll deal with what i got. If you have the dimensions and stuff that may help though.

Do you want deminsions for the box above or something like this:

^^That box isn't enough room for 2 ported, but it will be fine for 2 sealed and perfect for 1 ported. It would sound better ported aswell.

Do you want more boom or punch? What type of music do you listen to? A sealed box will be more "punchy" and not get quite as low or loud as a properly tuned ported box. A ported box IF tuned LOW, will hit lower than a sealed and be louder. If you listen to stuf that is "boomy", like rap, go ported. And tell the shop to tune it to 33 hz.

I used to tune everything to 35. If you listen to rap, 40 is probably a little too high, especially for the people who listen to songs that are screwed and chopped. lol

Yes but you will need to build into a fender well and take out the factory t-top holders to maximize the space. I built a box doing the same thing and I was able to get well over 4 cu ft.

Also, what would be an ideal wattage amp to power the two 12" Kicker CVR's? I have an 800w amp now, but i think thats underrated.

I would get an amp rated at 1000w RMS.
And just build one as big as you can. You can't possibly build one too big for 2 ported back there. And yes, a ported box will hit 3X harder and, depending on the port, lower too.
