My ABS sheets came in the mail!
 
I am now the proud owner of two 2'x4' sheets of black plastic!

Do any of you have any idea what I was going to do with it?! :D

Considering the current state of my car (http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...sor-25686.html), I need to get it running before I can ecomod it!

For my G.I. Joes?

It is a bit on the heavy side if it's the same thickness I used for strips on my pick up truck cover.

Could be useful for a front air pan though.

It is 1/16", so 0.0625". Is that thick enough for a belly pan? I thought that the consensus on here was Ye Almighty Coroplast.

How much did you pay?

I measured my pieces, they're 1/8-5/16".

Coroplast is popular because it's cheap. I would think for durability, the order would be Coroplast—>Alumacor—>ABS—>Polymetal.

kach22i -- That was a great initial post, too bad the thread never went anywhere.

I shop at the local hippy recyclers.

I got a 40x42" piece that's a close color match, the last one they had, for $4.00 with 20% discount. It's cut into triangles to make fender skirts. I'm figuring out how to heat form a crown into them, before they are trimmed to size.

I went back the next day and got a 27x50" piece for $5.00. It is laminated, with some white core material. It's cut-offs from something. It comes and goes.
