Glassing a new sub enclosure in the hatch

Well.
I got suspended from work for three days starting today. so i've got time. I've decided to throw my extra amp and a 12" Boston sub in it that I have had laying around for a while.
this is my extreme budget install I guess. the only thing I am buying is fiberglass Resin and carpet to cover it. Everything else I already have.

I've already cut out the baffle and cut the mounting hole. hopefully I'll be done with it by tomorrow some time. and don't worry, as usual, you'll get pics of my shoddy works. lol

I know, I know. bondo brand SUCKS royal cock, but it's all I can get on short notice

UPDATE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've got 2 layers done now.
and I must say

BONDO BRAND RESIN CAN LICK MY BALLS!
THIS IS THE WORST STUFF I'VE EVER WORKED WITH
-short batch life (even at only .5% MEKP)
-enters gelling stage quick
-DOES NOT brush through well.

it's plain old HORRIBLE
wish I would have waited and ordered some 440 layup from UScomposites. but this will have to do.
