I think I will be sheeting out the doors soon...I don't like how untidy it looks.
Some 2mm ABS sheet can't exactly tip the scales...but in my searching best I have found is about £46 per door.
I don't care if it's not "carbon effect" etc...just black would do!
Anyone any experience in this?!

Yeah when I was going to do it for the rallye I found it pricey.
I made the rears for free using some 2mm I found being thrown out by my neighbours.
Maybe checking down you local dump/recycling centre

If I do find a supplier as least I maybe able to get a bit of it for us all maybe to get price down. I want some to make ducting for the radiator too, to funnel some air in.

I can get an 8x4 sheet of 2mm in white for £45. Thats what me and nath did for his 106 and my truck. Can be rolled to fit in a boot to get it home and will give you plenty. Dont think its abs, think its pvc but easily paintable or coverable, ive done mine in suede.

I have bought a few things off these guys for work before, not sure if they are cheap enough but the service has always been good.
