I could fabricate one for you; however, it would take some time since I have only build one for my 370Z. The sub box enclosure is constructed separately from the cover as seen in the picture. The two pieces are fiberglass together. My sub box weighs approximated 6 lbs. I built a removal cover wrapped in speaker cloth to hide the sub, signal processor (bitTen) and amp access opening.
Not sure on the price, but it would cost more that typical MDF constructed sub boxes due to material cost and layup time. My one-off sub box took about a month to make due to being sick over the Christmas holidays.
If other people are interested, I will have to made a mold which could reduce the time factor.
The sub box enclosure volume size is dependent upon the sub woofer you plan to use.
My sub box is 0.29 cu.ft. will polyfill added inside the sub box. The amp rack is located on the passenger side under the sub enclosure that covers the foam piece and is access through a port. The amp's access opening is large enough to permit access for adjusting the amp's gain controls.
There is approximately 1.0 interior cu. ft. for the sub box if the entire space where the foam piece is located in used as a sub box. That said, the amp would have to be located elsewhere. For example, a JL Audio 8w7-3 sub requires 0.875 cu.ft. for a sealed sub enclosure or 1.00 cu.ft. for a ported enclosure.
