Some metal needed

[lilws6]

just tore into the busa this year to clean up some edges from when i cut the mudflap shovel off and come to find my lexan plate mount was cracked almost all the way off. stuffs pretty thick so not shure why it cracked but it was a clean looking crack bout 3/4 the way across the sheet i had made. So now i'm looking for some aluminum maybe steel but steel would be heavy. Probably looking for a plate about 2 1/2" wide by 6 1/2" long about 1/8" thick. any leads on where i could get some cheap? or any one here work for a place that would have something got cash for ya :shades

use wood if you don't want to spend more than $5..... :D
don't places like farm and fleet sell small sections? or ace hardware?

I got you covered, just a piece of flat stock? Need any holes in it?

[lilws6]

yea just some flat stock aluminum if possible i can do the holes since i know there not the straightest in the undertail anyhow.

i have some angle iron in my garage can cut it your desired length and its about 1/8th lmk u can have a chunk for free i use it here and there to weld misc shit on my derby cars i got it for free so if u need a chunk LMK im in greenfield

[RanJer]

If all else fails I can get ya tin, stainless steel, or black clip steel.. Same deal with Pork, need any holes? mitered edge? etc

I've got carbon fiber.

[lilws6]

carbon fiber would look sexy but i don't think it would hold up for what i need. angle iron will not work for what i need. i was looking at aluminum just for the fact that i can polish it out real nice and maybe have it engraved later down the road. I had the lexan on there for quite some time and was thinking about running lights to it so it would glow but if i can get aluminum i would polish the crap out of it. Like i said carbon fiber would be sexy as all hell but i think it would have to be quite think to retain the strength?
