Default Fiberglass Sheet ---

Does anyone know where you can buy finished fiberglass sheeting? Stuff about the weight and thickness of what we generally use for body panels, etc. -- perhaps a gel-coated. Auditioned some of the green stuff used for circuit boards and it's very heavy -- too heavy.

Just need the stuff for some internal panels where no shaping is neccessary -- just flat finished fiberglass stock.

Thanks,

Interior panels? How about CF?

There is a lot of finished carbon fiber on ebay if you have the patience to wade though thirty thousand listings for carbon look vinyl. They can be found at very good prices, especially if you can handle a little surface flaw here or there.
