I have seen a lot of people do it with normal sealed and ported boxes and i don't see why it wouldn't its meant for out door use on vehicles that have vibrations not to mention all the weather they deal with too i would assume it would be just fine.

That looks ok jrfonte.
I've heard spraying the inside of the subbox would help?
If mud and dirt etc. are a issue in your car spray the outside, no problem, but if not just get some carpenter to make some synthetic leather put on your subbox... it should be about $20 cheaper.

Looks good. I just thought of something do u think the bed liner would add any strength to the box cuz I was gonna put a layer of resin on the face that the subs drop into as well

not really any strength but maybe help dampen the resonances because its flexible but a layer of resin around the seams on the inside would help and seal up any cracks or leaks it takes several layers of resin to add any strength to anything the box in my f150 is made out of fiberglass resin

Putting Line-X on a box is a good idea if it may be exposed to moisture. The other positive is it helps dampen the enclosure a little more.

Resin, is great for adding strength, sealing and dampening the strucure. (Only downfall, is it must be mixed RIGHT).
