I'm after a supplier for those big sheets of GRP used on truck roofs (not the laminated ply like the sides).

need about 50 foot of it and 6'3" wide. Or three 17 foot lengths.

Google keeps bringing back shite.

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Try giving FP and S a call on 01362 851600

They can get most stuff.

That numbers dereham, norfolk which is the main office, but i think they have branches everywhere.

We spend serious amounts with them, and they are very helpful
