I am going to build one soon for a trunk mount setup and want some inspiration.

What have you seen that made you stop and say cool, or what was so clean you didn't notice it at all?

Boat battery boxes are great. Cheap and contain any acid spills and other mishaps. They are black plastic

Think I'm just going to zip tie my new lithium battery in place. Redneck, but then again, it's in a Camaro.

Plastic tool boxes are cheaper than boat battery boxes and have enough extra room for a couple quarts of oil and a small tool roll.

Do an image search for "Billet Battery Box"

Wallmart has some cool cheap plastic ammo boxes.

I wouldn't want to put much time and effort making a beautiful battery hold down, so I would (and should) make one like this.

If you watch Top Gear and listen to Jeremy you will have to have a body in the trunk along with the battery

Maybe not your definition of cool, but I like it, and it's factory.
