It's ok when using mids....they really don't even need a box. So it's a good practice piece. Now when you start doing sub boxes, you want to make sure it's out of mdf, and air tight.
Instead of builing a box though, you should be taking the stock speakers out of the doors, building adapter plates with the plywood (if needed) and mounting the mids and highs there. Save the big bulky boxes for subwoofers.

It's good practice.. the cost of the wood was right so you can get familiar wth the tools/procedures. I know the first box I build out of mdf came out like asshole, and wasted about a sheet of mdf.

You need about .35 cuft of space per woofer. from the looks of those pics you need about half of what you have now.
did you double check your impedance wiring? even mids will burn an amp out is wired low. wiring too high will just clean up the sound a bit.
