    Looks GREAT! I hope you used spray on adhesive and NOT rubber cement. The secret to the spray on is to coat both surfaces and let is dry according to the directions on the can, THEN stick it.

    i used spray adhesive, sprayed the box then the carpet, let both sides get tacky then stuck it together, originally was using a rolling pin, but that wouldnt get down to the bottom corners, so i started using a can of Beefaroni... that worked beautifully.. AND i got to eat it when i was done (the beefaroni.. not the sub box)
