Artistic Design of a Subwoofer Enclosure

Like most internet forums I have gone through tonight you seem to be plagued with people asking for help designing their box. With this thread I give you a chance to help me out and at the same time talk about how to make a box design look cool.

My subwoofer enclosure is made like any typical wooden box, and it is going to be covered with vinyl. What I have been wondering about is ways to make the box look cooler without having to make it out of fiberglass, for example.

Do you have any cool or crazy ideas to add to a subwoofer enclosure to make it look nicer? Like adding LEDs, or embossing the vinyl.

I am particularly interested in how to emboss the vinyl to make a textured logo, or design on the vinyl itself.

Any ideas?

How about staining the wood?

or painting it, and slapping a bunch of car audio stickers on it.

possibly have some cool vinyls made to slap on there.

how about simply spraying it with a textured finish paint or using Laminate which has all those nice printed patterns & surface finishes on it .....
