yes its been answered, no need for u or any1 else to argue in here I asked a question, I didnt need a little b**ch fight ok... so as long as every1 has had there say, then its done. Ive made the decision to use perspex, I said that several posts ago. I did not start this topic so ppl can have a little ego fight about how knowledgable they r cause every1 has good ideas and have there own ideas and "facts", lets leave it at that thanks for ur help and thanks Kev, Ill post up pics when I get done.. I just bought some f**k expensive material other day for sub boxes, its like a suedy type stuff, feels so good lol but damn expensive, so hopefully will turn out good... b4 I install it tho, gotta wait for it to rain to make sure i have fixed me leaking boot |

Cool... Thanks for the info 
eb... I was just pointing out your question had been answered therefore the thread can go off topic No one is b**ch fighting or ego fighting, trying to have a discussion on the properties of glass and acrylic.

Perspex is no doubt easier to modify to the shape you want if you have the right tools. Strip heater, moulder, etc. without these... you would have no chance making any good out of your perspex. I know what I'm talking about because I do a lot of work with plastic at school. 7 days til I'm 15 Big Kev

I have found glass to be the way to go.
No dramas with sound quality of my set-up using glass although some here seem to think glass ounds bad? not sure why? I have no flex issues and it is as solid as.

Cmon AU's can be beasts. Just coz they never won any v8 supercar titles or any Bathurst wins, doesnt mean anything...
