Have you checked Colonial Photo and Hobby? Last time I checked they had plenty of styrene for all the train stuff.

Im going to go there today since I have the day off. Im trying to build a rear bed area for my JK Unlimited (Pro-Line body) I cut the hardtop off and now need to reinforce the rear. Thanks Version and Yoda.

Hit up NickRummy on here as well, lots of sizes and great prices. Much cheaper then a LHS.

a tip, if you cant find styrene anywhere local head to walmart and pick up some for sale signs. They are usually styrene, although a bit thin. They might have some thicker ones if you look around.

If you don't find any look here. He has all kinds of goodies and reasonably priced. Heck he might even be able to hook you up with a premade bed area of some sort since he does the cool drop beds already

. I wanna win his giveaway so bad

Well thanks to Version_three I was able to find some down at Colonial Photo and Hobby. I had not been there in a long time so I actually forgot about the train section they have and the stuff they carry. I also found a set of RC4WD 1.9 Mickey Thompsons there which Im going over later to get. (thanks version for making me spend another 50 bucks

) Anyways I did manage to get a piece and mount it inside the Wrangler JK so that I could cut the rear roof off and install my modded Dingo Roll Cage. Came out ok Im going to work on it a little more to clean it up but for a quick job it came out pretty good.
