there are alot of questions that would have to be answered first. do you want it to be real carbon fiber or are you looking for it be covered with carbon fiber vinyl? do you want it to be full carbon fiber? The two ways to make something like this are really to make a plug and molds for each individual piece to fit into your trunk and vacume bag the pieces. the other way is to make fiberlass pieces to fit the trunk and cover them with carbon fiber. neither is impossible but both take alot of work.

Doesn't a sub box need to have some mass to it? So using an exotic, expensive material seems like the wrong approach...
