I have two sub boxes I built for my boat that I need to have glassed for waterproofing and then vinyl wrapped to match interior color. Looking for a shop in the IE to do this work. Corona to Redlands area - I'm in San Bernardino. This is not a high end build, not looking for show quality work, just want someone that will do the job right and not gouge me. Here are the boxes....

Looks like you did good on the boxes. Why not glass them yourself, and then a standard upholstery shop? When I read the title, I was thinking full on fiberglass enclosure build...that's a hassle. Just to glass them up shouldn't be too bad. Be cheaper I would think, but don't know what shops are doing what out that way.

I built the boxes 3 years ago and have not made it priority to get this done. I could certainly do it myself even though I've never worked with fiberglass, but I have just too many little details on different projects to tackle this. This is the last step to get the boat ready to sell and I just need it done and done right.

Thanks 06lbz, Carlos is hooking it up. $250 for the pair. Dropping off tonight.

May not be a horrible idea to use resin on the insides of the box as well. Any time I’ve done sealed enclosures even with mdf like you used i like to resin the inside to fully seal seal them.
